You need to add two mixed numerals.
One is positive and one is negative.
To add a positive number and a negative number, first take the absolute value of both, making them both positive. Then subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value. Finally, the sign of the answer is the same sign as the number that has the larger absolute value.
The numbers are -4 5/8 and 2 1/8
Take absolute values:
|-4 5/8| = 4 5/8
|2 1/8| = 2 1/8
Subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value.
4 5/8 - 2 1/8 = 2 4/8 = 2 1/2
The greater absolute value is 4 5/8.
Since the number with the larger absolute value was -4 5/8, a negative number, the answer is negative, -2 1/2
-4 5/8 + 2 1/8 = - 2 1/2
18 x 4 = 72
(9 x 2) x 4 = 72
9 x (2 x 4) = 72
Answer:
-50
Step-by-step explanation:
The equivalent expression of -14 - 6 is -14 - (+6)
<h3>What are
equivalent expression?</h3>
Equivalent expressions are expressions that have the same value when evaluated
<h3>How to determine the equivalent expression?</h3>
The expression is given as:
-14 - 6
Put the terms of the expression in brackets
-14 - (6)
Rewrite 6 as +6
-14 - (+6)
Hence, the equivalent expression of -14 - 6 is -14 - (+6)
