Remember
(ab)/c=a(b/c)
and
b/b=1 when b=b
1.
8+9t+4=
8+4+9t=
12+9t=
9t+12
2. (56ab)/b=56a(b/b)=56a(1)=56a
3. divising negatives yeilds positive
-46/-2=46/2=23

Answer: 10</h3>
Subtracting a negative is the same as adding a positive. So 2-(-8) is really 2+8 = 10.
With something like 2-8, we start at 2 and move to the left 8 units to arrive at -6 on the number line. When we do 2-(-8), we start at 2 and move 8 units in the opposite direction since -8 is the opposite of 8.
In terms of money, you can think of a negative number as an IOU or it represents the amount of debt. Writing -8 means you are 8 dollars in debt. If we subtract away debt, then we have less of it and effectively its the same as adding dollars to your pocket. Subtracting away 8 dollars of debt is the same as adding 8 dollars to your pocket, which is one interpretation of how 2-(-8) is the same as 2+8.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
rewrite each equation
1) 2x+12y=68
2)8x-12y=-28
because the y values are the same number but opposite signs they will cancel out nicely.
10x=40
x=4
now lets plug x into any of the equations.
2(4)+12y=68
12y=60
y=5
(4,5)
