(iii) $17+............=0$
(iv) $[13+(-12)]+(............)=13+[(-12)+(-7)]$
(v) $(-4)+[15+(-3)]=[-4+15]+............$
To do:
We have to fill in the blanks to make the given statements true.
Solution:
We have to use different laws of addition.
(i) $(-5)+(-8)=(-8)+\boxed{(-5)}$ [Commutative law of addition]
(ii) $-53+\boxed{(0)}=-53$ [Additive Identity]
(iii) $17+\boxed{(-17)}=0$ [Additive inverse]
(iv) $[13+(-12)]+\boxed{( -7)}=13+[(-12)+(-7)]$ [Associative law of addition]
(v) $(-4)+[15+(-3)]=[(-4)+15]+\boxed{(-3)}$ [Associative law of addition]
