A word problem that can be modeled by addition of two negative numbers integers is given as followed.

Evans and Irvin are standing at the same spot. Evans took 7 steps backwards and another 7 steps backward, what is the current position of Evans relative to where Irvin is standing?

To solve the above, we note that Evans took 7 steps backwards and another 7 steps backward, thus his current position relative to Irvin is given by (-7) + (-7) = -7 - 7 = -14.

Therefore, Evans is 14 steps backwards relative to where Irvin is standing.

Find the intervals on which f(x)=2xx2+64 increases.

Shtirlitz [24]

f(0)=64, f(1)=66, f(2)=72, f(3)=82, f(4)=96,...=2,6,10,14,...=2{1,3,5,7,...}
This can be written 2{2x+1}, so the intervals on which f(x) increases are 4x+2.
