To find the difference in weights from two years ago, you will need to combine the 2 differences from the two years.  

-1.56 and 0.73 becomes -1.56 + 0.73.

To add a positive and a negative number you will subtract the absolute values of the numbers AND use the sign of the number with the bigger absolute value (negative) in your answer.

|-1.56| - |0.73|
1.56 - 0.73 = 0.83
-0.83

The cat lost 0.83 (-0.83) pounds over 2 years.

Solve the equation <br> -10 + 3x + 5x = -56 ? ??
Xelga [282]
Add like terms on the same side:
-10 + 8x = -56
Add ten to both sides
-10 + 8x + 10 = -56 +10
Simplify:
8x = -46
Divide both side by 8
8x/8 = -46/8
Simplify
x = - 5.75
The answer is x = -5.75
(The answer can also be written as -23/4 or -5 3/4)
