Simonne used the following steps to simplify the given expression. 12 - 3(-2x + 4) step 1: 12 + (–3)·(–2x) + (–3)·(4) step 2: 12 + 6x + (–12) step 3: 12 + (–12) + 6x step 4: 0 + 6x step 5: 6x what property of real numbers was used to transition from step 3 to step 4? a. identity property of addition b. inverse property of addition c. associative property of addition d. commutative property of addition

After being rearranged and simplified, which of the following equations could be solved using the quadratic formula? check all that apply. a. 9% + 3x2 = 14 + x-1 b. -x+ + 4x + 7 = -32-9 c. 5x + 4 = 3x4 - 2 d. 2x2 + x2 + x = 30

Which term best describes the association between variables a and b
