\n" ); document.write( "Rewrite this equation using the Associative Property.
\n" ); document.write( "(2s + 1) + 3 = 16
\n" ); document.write( "2s + (1+3) = 16\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "solving for s
\n" ); document.write( "2s + 4 = 16
\n" ); document.write( "2s + 4 - 4 = 16 -4
\n" ); document.write( "2s = 12
\n" ); document.write( "(2s)/2 = 12/2
\n" ); document.write( "s = 6\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "checking our answer
\n" ); document.write( "2*6 + 1 + 3 = 12 + 1 + 3 = 16 \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
