Mrs. Perez was looking at her bank account statement. She noticed that her beginning balance was $500,and she had added nothing to her account. What was the ending balance on her statement?What property did you apply?

Respuesta :

Answer: The ending balance on her statement was $500.

We apply additive property of zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Additive property of zero tells that adding zero to any number or expression does not change the number.

In other words, [tex]a+0=a[/tex] .

Given: The beginning balance in Mrs. Perez account = $500

Since she added nothing to her account and nothing means "zero".

therefore, the amount in her account at the time of ending = [tex]500+0=0[/tex] [By additive property of zero ]
