Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

  A. 0

  B. -66

  C. 4

  D. 998

  E. -12

Step-by-step explanation:

A. By definition, the sum of anything and its additive inverse is zero.

__

B. If you have trouble with sums, your calculator can help.

  -22 + (-44) = -22 -44 = -66

__

C. -36/x = -9 can be solved by multiplying by x and dividing by -9:

  -36 = -9x

  -36/-9 = x = 4

Since the product of the divisor and quotient is the dividend, dividing the dividend by either gives the other. Here, your dividend is -36 and your quotient is -9. To find the divisor, you can divide -36 by -9, as we did.

__

D. The absolute value function changes the sign of negative numbers to positive:

  |-998| = 998

__

E. If you have trouble with sums, your calculator can help.

  (−2)−[(−3)−(−7)−(−6)]

  = -2 -(-3 +7 +6) = -2 -10 = -12
