Section 1.1 The Real Numbers For Exercises 13–16, let p = –2, q = 3 and r = –5.
1. True. This statement is true, since every integer 13. −3 ( p + 5q ) = −3[ −2 + 5(3) ] = −3 [ −2 + 15]
can be written as the ratio of the integer and 1. = −3 (13) = −39

the commutative property, the order of the
addends or multipliers is changed, while the
grouping of the addends or multipliers is
changed when using the associative property.
