Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:
All other options given are commutative i.e. \(a * b = b * a\), except option D.
\(a * b = a - b + ab\)
\(b * a = b - a + ba\)
\(a - b = -(b - a) \neq b - a\)
All other options given are commutative i.e. \(a * b = b * a\), except option D.
\(a * b = a - b + ab\)
\(b * a = b - a + ba\)
\(a - b = -(b - a) \neq b - a\)
