I have this problem:
a * (a + b) = a
And I can only use the commutative, distributive, identity, negation properties.
A hint that my teacher gives is to use is
a * a (a + b) = (a + 0) * (a + b)
Can anyone help me?
My teacher doesn't explain it well at all!
You have to tell us more about what is going on here.
What is the definition of the operation *?
How does a(a+b) work or what does a(a+b) mean?
Please give more information about this problem.
Whops the hint is actually a * (a + b) = (a + 0) * (a + b)Quote:
