Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
24 - (-6)
Apply rule : -(-a) = a
Negative (-) times a negative (-) is positive (+).
24 + 6
= 30
-6 is in parentheses because it is a negative number. this prevents the equation from looking like a too long subtraction sign (24--6); therefore it is written as 24 - (-6).
this simplifies to 24 + 6 = 30
to negatives = a positive
3
The answer is 3 because the blue line goes across the y - axis at 3.
