4

Which equation demonstrates the additive identity property?

A
(7 + 4 i) + (7 minus 4 i) = 14
Option A
B
(7 + 4 i) + 0 = 7 + 4 i
Option B
C
(7 + 4 i) (1) = 7 + 4 i

D
(7 + 4 i) + (negative 7 minus 4 i) = 0
Option D
7

Which equation illustrates the identity property of multiplication?

A
(a + bi) × c = (ac + bci)
B
(a + bi) × 0 = 0
C
(a + bi) × (c + di) = (c + di) × (a + bi)
D
(a + bi) × 1 = (a + bi)
8

Which equation shows an example of the associative property of addition?

A
(–4 + i) + 4i = –4 + (i + 4i)
B
(–4 + i) + 4i = 4i + (–4i + i)
C
4i × (–4i + i) = (4i – 4i) + (4i × i)
D
(–4i + i) + 0 = (–4i + i)

Aiko is finding the sum (4 + 5i) + (–3 + 7i). She rewrites the sum as (–3 + 7)i + (4 + 5)i. Which statement explains the error Aiko made by using a mathematical property incorrectly?

A
Aiko incorrectly used the commutative property by changing the order of the two complex numbers.
B
Aiko incorrectly used the associative property by changing the order of the two complex numbers.
C
Aiko incorrectly used the identity property by combining the real number and the coefficient of the imaginary part.
D
Aiko incorrectly used the distributive property by combining the real number and the coefficient of the imaginary part.
