In multiplication, a negative times a positive has a negative answer. if both are positive or both are negative, the answer is positive.
5 * -5 = -25
-5* -5 = 25


in divisions say you have
-5/5 = -1
-5/-5= 1
5/-5= -1


in addition and subtraction, subtracting a negative means to add the two numbers. adding a negative means to subtract the second number.

5+ (-5) = 0
5- (-5) = 10

I think the rules the same: n+n=n p+p=p and if its a n+p, the bigger one gets the sign. for example, if its -3+5, it's 2. basically, the negative 3 is another word for subtracting 3 from the 5. so, 3-5=2. another example is if its 3+(-5). this is the trick i made up to do these problems: so, 3-3=0. how much is left from the 5? 2. but its negative, so -2. this took like, 5 minutes to write, so...hope i helped! ;)

How can i find the answer to this?
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

by the property of corresponding angles (2x +16) and (3x-12) will be equal

working uot from the equation 3x-12 = 2x+16 we get x=28

and we know that 3x-12 and y are supplementry as they form a linear pair

from that we will get the equation - 3x-12 + y = 180 and we know the value of x sowe will get y as 108
