Answer:
The negative of a negative is a positive. You can rewrite the equation as -3+1. So, the answer is -2.

Complete question:
Kyle incorrectly says that the product of - ( - 6 ) # ( - 1 ) is 6 . 11. After a recycling awareness program, the number of tons of recyclable material taken to the landfill is reduced by 13 7/10 tons per month. Represent the total change in the tons of recyclable material taken to the landfill after 7 months resulting from the awareness program a. What is the correct product? 10 month. Represent the total change in the b. What was Kyle's likely error?
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Kyle incorrectly says that the product of - ( - 6 ) ( - 1 ) is 6
-(-6)(-1) = 6 [incorrect]
Correction:
-(-6) (-1) :
- (-6) = 6
6 (-1) = - 6
Given that reduction in materials = 13 7/10 tons per month
Monthly reduction = 13 7/10 = 137/10 tons
After 7 months : (7 * 137/10) = 959/10 tons = 95.9 tons
Change in amount of material taken to the land fill:
Initial amount - amount after 7 months
If initial amount = x
Change in amonnt = (x - 95.9) tons
Let the number of hours = X
Multiply the speed of each train by the number of hours (x) and add them together to equal the total miles:
75x + 95x = 238
Simplify:
170x = 238
Divide both sides by 170:
x = 238/170
x = 1.4 hours.
Check:
75 x 1.4 = 105 miles
95 x 1.4 = 133 miles
105 + 133 = 238 miles
It will take 1.4 hours ( 1 hour and 24 minutes).
