It depends upon the numbers...If both are negative numbers, then you change the value of the second number and add them. For example:
(-3) - (-6) = (-3) + 6 = 3.

(-7) - (-4) = (-7) + 4  = -3

So, it depends on the second numbers sign.

I hope this answer helped you :)

Ten times the sum of half a number x and 8 is 12.
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

BREAKDOWN

10 times: 10 ×

The sum of: ( ) + ( )

which would be : 10 × ( ) + ( )

half a number: 10 × ( X/2 ) + ( )

and 8: 10 × ( X/2 ) + ( 8 )

is 12 : 10 × ( X/2 + 8 ) = 12

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

SIMPLIFICATION

Multiply ten: 10 X (X/2 + 8) = 12

which equals to: 5x + 80 = 12

bring the like terms together: 5x = 80 - 12

Equals: 5x = 78

Find out X:. x = 78/5

FINAL ANSWER:. X = 15.9
