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)
6

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
Option C
D
(7 + 4 i) + (negative 7 minus 4 i) = 0
Option D
9

Which equation illustrates the identity property of multiplication?

A
(a + bi) × c = (ac + bci)
B
