Answer:
Commutative
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]3 + b + 2 = 3 + 2 + b[/tex]
Required
What law is applied
The applied law is commutative law of addition.
This law states that:
[tex]a + b = b + a[/tex]
So:
[tex]3 + b + 2 = 3 + (b + 2)[/tex]
When the positions of 2 and b are interchanged, we have:
[tex]3 + b + 2 = 3 + (2 + b)[/tex]
Remove bracket
[tex]3 + b + 2 = 3 + 2 + b[/tex]
