-2(-9)+3
18+3
21
Explanation: -2(-9) When multiplying numbers that have both a negative sign, the answer is positive. Multiply normally.
19.
-6(-4)0
24(0)
0
Explanation: -6(-4) As I explained before, the answer would be positive.
24(0) Every number multiplied by 0 is 0.
20.
56+(-7)
49
Explanation: 56+(-7) Any problem like this is just basically going to be 56-7.

-36+(-4)
-40
Explanation: -36+(-4) You are simply adding normally then adding the sign. This will only work if the signs are the same. (Signs are positive and negative.)
I worked it out and I got south Africa
Okay, so first you draw a picture and let x be the distance from point D to the rest stop. Then the distance from point to the rest stop is 8 - x
You know that the length of the new trail is y + z, where y is the distance from Ancaster to the rest stop and z is the distance from Dundas to the rest stop.
Now by the Pythagorean theorem, y^2 = 4^2 + x^2 and z^2 = 6^2 + (8 - x) ^2
So take square roots of these, add them, and minimize.
Note: I am assuming the path is perfectly straight, otherwise this approach fails.
7. X2=25
X=5, x=—5
8. (X—3)2=49
X=10, x=—4
9. X2+3x—28.
X=4, x=—7.
10. 5x2–8=3x.
X=8/5, x=—1
