Algebraic Properties

1. The document discusses the importance of understanding algebraic properties when studying algebra. It will help simplify expressions, solve equations, and more as the study of algebra progresses. 2. It defines six important algebraic properties - the commutative, associative, distributive, closure, identity, and inverse properties. These properties describe how numbers behave under different mathematical operations like addition, multiplication, subtraction, and division. 3. Examples are provided to illustrate each property, like how the commutative property allows adding or multiplying numbers in any order. Exercises are also included for the reader to practice applying the different properties.

Why we must learn Algebraic Properties ?

Because understanding the properties of


algebra will help us simplify numerical
and algebraic expressions, solve equations, and more
as you progress in studying algebra.
01 COMMUTATIVE
PROPERTY
An operation is commutative if a change in the order of the numbers does not change the
results. This means the numbers can be swapped.

Numbers can be added in any order.

a+b=b+a
4+5=5+4
Numbers can be multiplied in any order.

axb=bxa
5x3=3x5
Numbers that are subtracted are NOT commutative.
For example:
4-5≠5–4
Numbers that are divided are NOT commutative.
For example:
4÷5≠5÷4
02 ASSOCIATIVE
PROPERTY
An operation is associative if a change in grouping does not change
the results. This means the parenthesis (or brackets) can be moved.

Numbers that are added can be grouped in any order.

(a+b)+c=a+(b+c)
(4+5)+6=5+(4+6)
Numbers that are multiplied can be grouped in any order .

(axb)xc=ax(bxc)
(4x5)x6=5x(4x6)
Numbers that are subtracted and divided are NOT associative.

(4- 5)-6≠5-(4–6)
(4÷5)÷6≠5÷(4÷6)
03 DISTRIBUTIVE
PROPERTY
Distributive property allows you to remove the parenthesis (or
brackets) in an expression. Multiply the value outside the brackets
with each of the terms in the brackets.

ax(b+c)=axb+axc
4 x ( 2 + 3 ) = 6 + 12
04 CLOSURE
PROPERTY
Closure is when all answers fall into the original set. When two even
numbers are added, the answer will be an even number. Thus, the set of
even numbers has closure under addition.

● When two odd numbers are added, the answer is not an odd number.
Therefore, the set of odd numbers does not have closure under addition.
● When two even numbers are multiplied, they produce an even number.
Thus, the set of even numbers has closure under multiplication.

● When two odd numbers are multiplied, the answer is an odd number.
Therefore, the set of odd numbers has closure under multiplication.
EXAMPLE
● (2 + 4 = 6) if you add two even numbers and the answer is
the set of even numbers is closed under addition (has
closure).

● (3 + 5 = 8) If you add two odd numbers, the answer is not an


odd number therefore, the set of odd numbers is not
closed under addition (no closure).
05 IDENTITY
PROPERTY
The identity property for addition is 0. When 0 is added to any number, it gives
the original number.

A+0 =A
4 + 0= 4
The identity property for multiplication is 1. any number multiplied by 1 gives the
original number. (ax1 = a)

Ax 1 =A
4x1=4
06 INVERSE
The additive inverse is the opposite or negative of the number. The
sum of any number and its additive inverse is 0.

A + (-A) = 0
2 + (- 2) = 0
The multiplicative inverse is the reciprocal of the number,
which means one divided by the number. When the number is
multiplied by its reciprocal, the answer is 1.

EXERCISE
Fill the blanks and what is the name of the type
of property that used ?

1. (9a-21)(…) = (2b+7)(9a-21)

2. 6(y+3)= (…)x(…) +
(…)x(…)
 
3. ( + 3) • = 1

 
4. ( + 1) + … = … + (1 +x)
ANSWER
Fill the blanks and what is the name of the
type of property that used ?

1. (9a-21)(2b+7) = (2b+7)(9a-21) → Commutative property

 
2. 6(y+3)= (6)•(y) + (6)•(3) → Distributive property

3. ( + 3) • = 1 → Inverse property

4. ( + 1) + x = + (1+x)→ Assosiative property
