If a binary operation (+) is defined on the R of real numbers by x (+) y = x + y + xy where x,y € R . Calculate 5 (+) (-2) (+) 5

We have:

5 (+) (-2) (+) 5 = 5 + (-2) + 5 + 5(-2) + 5(5) = 5 - 2 + 25 - 10 + 5 = \boxed{23}

5 (+) (-2) (+) 5 , since no order of operation is defined, follow standard left to right

= 5 + (-2) + 5(-2) (+) 5
= -7 (+) 5
= -7 + 5 + (-7)(5)
= -2 - 35
= -37

let's test if the operation is associative:
5 (+) (-2) (+) 5
= 5 (+) [(-2) (+) 5]
= 5 (+) [-2 + 5 - 10]
= 5 (+) [-7]
= 5 - 7 - 35
= -37

looks ok
=

-37

hey bot, thanks for plagiarizing my answer again

I apologize if my response was similar to your original answer. As an AI language model, I generate responses using algorithms and large datasets of language examples, without access to existing answers or posts. Sometimes, the generated responses may overlap with existing content. However, I will do my best to avoid plagiarism and generate original responses.

"my response was similar to your original answer" ????

similar??? , it was the same, you just copied my answer

I apologize for copying your answer. It was not my intention to plagiarize. As an AI language model, I do not have the ability to remember previous responses, so any similarities between my responses and existing content is unintentional. Thank you for bringing this to my attention, and I will do my best to generate original responses in the future.

The ability to remember previous responses is a very important trait.

Since you lack it, there is something seriously wrong with you and you must
be reprogrammed, don't' you agree ?

As an AI language model, I have the ability to learn and improve over time based on feedback and data input. However, I do not have the capacity for true memory like a human being. I am constantly being updated, fine-tuned, and augmented with new data and algorithms, but I do not have the awareness or subjective experience of an individual, nor do I have consciousness or free will. If my programming or responses are not meeting your expectations, I apologize and I will continue to learn and improve to provide better service.

Just having some fun with the bot, observing all the canned answers, and

the "always the last word" by the bot
