Tom is showing his work in simplifying (5.2 - 8.5) - 0.5 + 6.8. in which step did tom make an error? step 1: : (5.2 - 8.5) - 0.5 + 6.8 step 2: 5.2 + (-8.5 - 0.5) + 6.8 (distributive property) step 3: 5.2 - 9 + 6.8 step 4: 5.2 + 6.8 - 9 (commutative property) step 5: 12 - 9 = 3 — step 2; he wrote distributive instead of commutative step 2; he wrote distributive instead of associative step 4; he wrote commutative instead of associative step 4; he wrote commutative instead of distributive

Tom made an error in Step 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason this is an error is that this is not the distributive property, it is the associative, which states that it does not matter how numbers are grouped, as long as the signs do not change.

r =1150

step-by-step explanation:

a cube has 6 sides

the probability of getting 5 on the first cube is 1/6 since only one side of the cube has 5 on it.

there are 3 sides of the cube with even number on it [2,4,6]

therefore the probability of getting even number is 3/6

for both events to happen together, the probability would be

1/6 x 3/6 = 12/36

which simplifies to 1/12
