Use the associative property to identify which expression is equal to (10)(5x)(7). 1.(7)(5x)(10) 2. 10(5x + 7) 3. (5x)(10)(7) 4.(10x5)(x.7)

Associative property is dealing with parentahsees and orders
it is
a(bc)=(ab)c and
a+(b+c)=(a+b)+c

so we want the multiplication one

given
(10)(5x)(7)
we can arragnge these a number of ways (we should use commutative property, but whatever)

first one works, the 7 was moved to front
2nd is wrong, that is a wierd version of the distributive
3rd is right, 5x was moved to the front
4th is wack, no bueno

answer is 1st and 3rd options

I’m not sure what sujevtbis this
