The sum of 7-1 and 7-2 will be a rational number because sum of rational numbers is a rational numbers.
A rational number is a number which can be written in p/q form where q≠0.
We know that when two rational numbers is added then the sum is also a rational number. And when two rational numbers are subtracted then the difference is also a rational number.
So in the given question, lets study the term differently that is,
i) 7 - 1 is a rational number because their difference is equal to 6 and it can be written in p/q form which is 6/1.
ii) 7 – 2 is also a rational number as their difference will be 5 which is a rational and can be written in p/q form which is 5/1.
So when these two rational numbers are added their sum will also be a rational number which is 11.

B should be the answer but I’m not that sure
Answer:
<u>$33.25</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking Eric's hours as a ratio to the total hours :
- 3.5 : 3.5 + 2
- 3.5 : 5.5
- 3.5 x 2 = : 5.5 x 2
- 7 : 11
Multiply the ratio into the amount paid :
- 52.25 x 7/11
- 4.75 x 7
- <u>$33.25</u>
<u></u>
Eric's share of the money is <u>$33.25</u>
For the first problem the answer is -5/2
2x−7+10=−2
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
2x−7+10=−2
2x+−7+10=−2
(2x)+(−7+10)=−2
(Combine Like Terms)
2x+3=−2
Step 2: Subtract 3 from both sides.
2x+3−3=−2−3
2x=−5
Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.
2x/2=−5/2
x=−5/2
Answer:
x= -5/2
