Answer: Line 1 to Line 2 - Commutative Property of Multipication
Line 2 to Line 3 - Commutative Property of Addition
Step-by-step explanation:
The Commutative Property of Multipication states that
a x b = b x a
In this case, our a = (2 + x) and our b = x
(2 + x)x = x(2 + x)
This is our transformation from Line 1 to Line 2
The commutative property of addition states that
a + b = b + a
Like the first part, we will define our variables a and b
Our a = 2 and our b = x
(2 + x) = (x + 2)
That is the transformation from Line 2 to Line 3
