Associative Property of Addition

Answer:  The correct option is (C) Associative Property of Addition.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to name the property that the following equation illustrates:

[tex]-5+(8+10)=(-5+8)+10~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)[/tex]

Let us consider that

a = -5,  b = 8   and   c = 10.

Then, equation (i) becomes

[tex]-5+(8+10)=(-5+8)+10\\\\\Rightarrow a+(b+c)=(a+b)+c,[/tex]

which is the associative property of addition for the real numbers a, b and c.

Thus, the given equation illustrates the associative property of addition.

Option (C) is CORRECT.
