A negative sign and a negative sign next to each other is a positive sign ex..

-14 - -3
= -14 + 3
= -11

a negative sign and a positive sign next to each other is a positive sign ex..

-14 + -3
= -14 - 3
= -17

the bigger a negative number the smaller it is
the bigger a positive number the larger it is
which supports the rule if you are subtracting the
number will become smaller and if you are adding
the number will become larger

Solve each of these equations. Explain or show your reasoning. 2(3x+2)=2x+28 5y+13=-43−3y 4(2a+2)=8(2−3a)
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

x = 6

y = 7

a = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1:

2(3x+2) = 2x + 28

6x + 4 = 2x + 28

4x = 24

x = 6

Equation 2:

5y+13 = -43-3y

8y = -56

y = -7

Equation 3:

8a + 8 = 16 - 24a

32a = 8

a = 1/4
