For Part 1, the correct answer is B: 18 + 30 = 30 + 18, which illustrates the commutative property. For Part 2, the correct answer is D: The y-intercept is 4, and the slope is 0.5 after rearranging the equation. Both answers reflect important properties in mathematics regarding operations and linear equations.
