when a negative number adds a negative number, it will be negative
when a negative number adds a positive number, whichever number (either positive or negative) take the sign of the bigger one
For example:
-4 + 3 = -1
-5 + 10 = 5

Answer:
r = -9/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
7/10 = r - (-8/5)
Required
Solve for x
7/10 = r - (-8/5)
We start by opening the bracket
7/10 = r + (- -8/5)
7/10 = r + (8/5)
7/10 = r + 8/5
Subtract 8/5 from both sides
7/10 - 8/5 = r + 8/5 - 8/5
7/10 - 8/5 = r
Solve the fraction by taking their LCM
(7 - 16)/10 = r
-9/10 = r
Reorder the above
r = -9/10
Hence, the value of r is -9/10
