(−4.5 + 4.2 + 5.6 − 7.3 Original problem)
(1−4.5 + 4.2 + 5.6 + (−7.3) Additive inverse)
(2−4.5 + (−7.3) + 4.2 + 5.6 Commutative property)
(3(−4.5 + (−7.3)) + (4.2 + 5.6) Associative property)
(4−11.8 + 9.8 Simplify)
(5−21.6 Simplify)
heres what i done
−4.5 + 4.2 + 5.6 − 7.3
−4.5 + 4.2 + 5.6 + (−7.3)
−4.5 + (−7.3) + 4.2 + 5.6
(−4.5 + (−7.3)) + (4.2 + 5.6)
-11.8+9.8 = -2
