hello :
answer:
C. Commutative Property of Multiplication

Answer 2

C. Commutative Property of Multiplication

Explanation:

Given : 3x(–5) = (–5)3x

To find : Which property is illustrated by the following statement.

Solution : We have given 3x(–5) = (–5)3x

Commutative Property of Multiplication : a *b= b* a .

Example : 3 *4 = 4 *3 = 12 .

So , we can see there is multiplicative sign between 3 and - 5 .

So, this is the Commutative Property of Multiplication.

Therefore, C. Commutative Property of Multiplication
