On simplifying the expression 13.8+ (-11.5) , we get 2.3 . And additions
13.8 + (-11.5) and (-13.8) + 11.5 are numbers will same value and opposite sign.
<h3>What are rules for adding a positive and a negative number?</h3>
For adding a negative and a positive number, use the sign of the larger number and subtract.
For example: (–8) + 2 = -6
Given that we have to solve 13.8 + (-11.5) = 13.8-11.5 (we subtract smaller no from larger and will use the sign of lager number that is + here)
13.8+(-11.5) = 13.8-11.5 =2.3
13.8+(-11.5) simply means that 13.8 -11.5 which is subtraction of 11.5 from 13.8
but (-13.8) + 11.5 = -13.8 +11.5 = -( 13.8 -11.5) [taking -1 common from the expression]
Therefore , -13.8 + 11.5 has same value as 13.8- 11.5 but opposite in sign.

Answer:
y = ⅔x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The line that is parallel to 2x - 3y = 24, would have the same slope as the line, 2x - 3y = 24.
Rewrite;
2x - 3y = 24
-3y = -2x + 24
Divide both sides by -3
y = ⅔x - 8
Thus, the slope of 2x - 3y = 24 is ⅔.
Therefore the line that is parallel to 2x - 3y = 24, will have a slope (m) of ⅔.
Using point-slope form, we can generate an equation that passes through (-3, -7) and is parallel to 2x - 3y = 24.
Thus, substitute (a, b) = (-3, -7) and m = ⅔ into y - b = m(x - a)
Therefore:
y - (-7) = ⅔(x - (-3))
y + 7 = ⅔(x + 3)
Rewrite in slope-intercept form.
Multiply both sides by 3
3(y + 7) = 2(x + 3)
3y + 21 = 2x + 6
3y = 2x + 6 - 21
3y = 2x - 15
Divide both sides by 3
y = ⅔x - 5

Answer:
x = -3, y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
first, take the 3x + 17 = y and put it in place for the y in the second equation.
-3x=4x+17+4
then, solve the equation.
-3x=4x+21
-3x-4x=4x-4x+21
-7x=21
-7/-7x=21/-7
x = -3
substitute in other equation
4(-3) + 17 = y
-12 + 17 = y
y = 5
answers are x = -3 and y = 5
