-50 - (-221) = 171

This is because subtracting a negative number is like adding a positive version of that instead. For a more simple example:
5 - (-2) = 7 or 5 + 2 = 7

Building a is 271 meters taller than building
kvv77 [185]

Let a and b represent the heights of the corresponding buildings (in meters).

... a = b +271 . . . . . . . a is 271 meters taller than b

... 2b -a = 211 . . . . . . if a is subtracted from twice b, the result is 211

Use the expression for a in the first equation to substitute for a in the second.

... 2b - (b+271) = 211

... b = 482 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify and add 271

... a = b +271 = 753

Building a is 753 meters tall; building b is 482 meters tall.

Yves bought 420 tropical fish for a museum display. He bought 6 times as many parrotfish as angelfish. How many of each type of
ohaa [14]
The answer would be d , because you have to add how many of each fish to equal up to the sum of 420 . which is x y . so the first equation is x + y = 420 . then it says he bought 6 times as many parrotfish as he did angelfish so you would have to multiply x which represents angelfish by 6 . to get the second equation of y = 6x .
