Answer:
Maureen ignored the negative(minus) sign in 1.7 thereby turning it into positive 1.7
Step-by-step explanation:
-1.7 + (-6.3)

= -8
NOTE:
- * + = -
- * - = +
+ * - = -
+ * + = +
Maureen's simplification
-1.7 + (-6.3)
= 1.7 - 6.3
= -4.6
Maureen ignored the negative(minus) sign in 1.7 thereby turning it into positive 1.7
Let x represent number of wrong questions answered by Aaron.
We have been given that Aaron is taking a multiple choice test with a total of 20 points available. Each question is worth exactly 1 point. We are asked to find Aaron's score (out of 20) if he got 6 questions wrong.
To find Aaron's score, we will subtract number of wrong answers from total score.



Therefore, Aaron's test scores would be 14 out of 20.
To find Aaron's score if he got x questions wrong, we will subtract x from total scores that is
.
Therefore, Aaron's score would be
, if he got x questions wrong.
