Consider number 17. You know that
17=9+8.
Then for negative numbers you have the same rule (with respect to sign -):
-17=(-9)+(-8).
Since (-9)+9=9+(-9)=9-9=0, you have that
-17+9=(-9)+(-8)+9=(-9+9)+(-8)=0+(-8)=-8.
Answer: -17=(-9)+(-8).

Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
-2.25*3 = 6.75 decreased (since negative)
4x - 3y + 20 = 0....4x - 3y = -21
4x - 3y = -21.....multiply by -2
5x - 6y = -25
----------------
-8x + 6y = 42 (result of multiplying by -2)
5x - 6y = -25
---------------add
-3x = 17
x = -17/3
this system of equations has 1 solution
