The red one is (4.1) and the green one is (-2.4) because is positive to negative so the positive side is that you got and the negative part is you owe someone for example: -20 < 30 so if it says Emily goes to the store and the milk costs $30.99 and she only has $10.00 that means that she owes $30.00 so is -10 <30
Answer:
x = 2
y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
y = x - 5 -------------------(I)
x + y = -1 ----------------(II)
Substitute y = x -5 in equation (II)
x + (x - 5) = -1
x + x - 5 = -1 {Combine like terms}
2x - 5 = -1 {Add 5 to both sides}
2x = -1 + 5
2x = 4 {Divide both sides by 2}
x = 4/2
x = 2
Substitute x = 2 in equation (I)
y = 2 - 5
y = -3
Divide both sides by -12
X=72/-12 now let's simplify 72/-12 = -72/12 so x= -72/12 simplify 72/12= 6
X= -6
