Yes, it does.
Ex:
2 + 3 = 3 +2 => 5 = 5

For negative integers:
(-2) + (-3) = (-3) + (-2) => -5 = -5

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

i believe you just have to add the fractions together since the denominator are the same :)

$\frac{6}{8} + \frac{5}{8} = \frac{6 + 5}{8} = \frac{11}{8}$

So in total Hazel can produce $\frac{11}{8}$ Liters of juice

Determine the coordinates of the x-intercept of 3x – 4y = 24.

Mars2501 [29]

The definition of an x intercept is when y equals 0. If y were to equal 0, you would have 3x -4(0)= 24, which is equal to 3x - 0 = 24. Using the addition property of equality, you would add 0 to both sides, and get 3x = 24. Finally, using the division property of equality, you have x = 8. So the coordinates of the x intercept would be (8,0), as your y was defined as 0. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions about my explanation and feel free to ask more questions.
