Commutative Law For Addition: a + b = b + a Commutative Law For Multiplication: a x b = b x a Associative Law For Addition: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) Associative Law For Multiplication: (a x b) x c = a x (b x c) Distributive Law: a x (b +c) = (a x b) + (a x c) The additive inverse for a is (-a) for any constant.or variable. a + (-a) = 0 The multiplicative inverse for a is 1/a for any constant or variable. a x 1/a = 1 The identity element for addition is 0 for any constant or variable. a + 0 = a The identity element for multiplication is 1 for any constant or variable. a x 1 = a |
