Solution

The statement "For any two real numbers xx and yy, x+y=y+xx+y=y+x" describes the property of commutativity in the binary operation of addition.

Explanation

  1. Commutativity: This property means that the order in which you add two numbers does not affect the sum. In mathematical language, this is expressed as: x+y=y+x x + y = y + x for all real numbers xx and yy.

  2. Binary Operation: In mathematics, a binary operation is an operation that combines two elements (operands) to produce another element. Addition is a classic example, where two numbers are combined to yield a third number.

Thus, the condition x+y=y+xx+y=y+x specifically illustrates that addition is commutative.
