Andrew is showing his work in simplifying −4.5 + 4.2 + 5.6 − 7.3. identify any errors in his work or in his reasoning. write feedback to andrew explaining the mistake he made and how to correct his work.

The bold is incorrect up top and corrected below

Step-by-step explanation:

(−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 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
