Answer:

Ok, so we have the fact that plus +minus=minus

Thats the fact. It always works that way that same signs means positive and different means negative, as explained with logic.

4+(-5)

So we know that 4 is positive and -5 is negative

if you look at it through a number line, substracting 5 from 4 you have

3--->2---->1---->0---->-1

Under zero, the negatives start, so its proved by maths and logic as well.

klasskru [66]

Let's first define variables.
y: number of shares of $ 10
x: number of shares of $ 12
We write the system of equations:
10x + 12y = 210
y = 2x + 5
Solving the system:
x = 75/17
y = 235/17
Answer:
she has:
75/17 shares of $ 12
235/17 shares of $ 10
