Answer: +5

Explanation: When a problem is asking us to find the absolute value of a number, it's really asking us how far is that number from zero.

So the absolute value of -5 is really asking us

how far is -5 away from zero on a number line.

I have drawn a number line below and you can see that -5

is 5 units to the left of zero which means its 5 units from zero.

So the absolute value of -5 is +5.

Which property would allow you to use mental computation to simplify the problem 27 + 15 + 3 + 5? additive identity additive inv

Fofino [41]

Answer:

Commutative Property

Step-by-step explanation:

Additive Identity: If you add a real number to zero or add zero to a real number, then you get the same real number back.

Additive Inverse: When you add the same number but reversed sign, you get 0.

Commutative Property: a + b = b + a

Addition distributive property: a(b+ c) = ab + ac.

In this case, we use the commutative property:

27 + 15 + 3 + 5 = 27 + 3 + 15 + 5.

We know that 27 + 3 = 30 and 15 + 5 = 20, so we get 50 quickly using mental math.
