Rasek [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Maureen ignored the negative(minus) sign in 1.7 thereby turning it into positive 1.7

Step-by-step explanation:

-1.7 + (-6.3)

Correct simplification

-1.7 + (-6.3)

Open parenthesis

= - 1.7 - 6.3

= -8

NOTE:

- * + = -

- * - = +

+ * - = -

+ * + = +

Maureen's simplification

-1.7 + (-6.3)

= 1.7 - 6.3

= -4.6

Maureen ignored the negative(minus) sign in 1.7 thereby turning it into positive 1.7
