7. Use y = 4 and y = – 4 to evaluate
a. y2 = (4)2 = 16
y2 = (– 4)2 = 16
b. (2y)2 = (2 ● 4)2 = (8)2 = 64
(2y)2 = (2 ● – 4)2 = (– 8)2 = 64
Properties – Name the property of real numbers illustrated by each of the following.
8. 2(x + 3) = (x + 3)2
9. 2(x + 3) = 2x + 6
A – Commutative Property of Multiplication
C – Distributive Property
10. 4 + (7 + 6) = (4 + 7) + 6
B – Associative Property of Addition
11. 4 + (7 + 6) = 4 + (6 + 7)
A – Commutative Property of Addition
12. 7x(5 •
1
) = 7x(1)

D – Multiplicative Inverse
13. 7x(1) = 7x
G – Identity Property of Multiplication
14. x + 0 = 0 + x
A – Commutative Property of Addition
15. 5x3 + 0 = 5x3
G – Identity Property of Addition
Combining Like Terms – Apply the distributive property as needed then combine the like terms.
16. 12 – 9x + 15x = 6x + 12
17. 25x – 6x + 13 – 20 = 19x – 7
18. 4(x – 2) + 19 = 4x + 11
