Helllpp ASAP The sum of -14.3 and a number is positive. Identify a possible value for that

Mathematics

Answer: Any number larger than 14.3; one possible value is 20

Note how 20 + (-14.3) = 20-14.3 = 5.7 which is positive.

If we picked something smaller than 14.3, like say 10, then

10+(-14.3) = 10-14.3 = -4.3 which is negative.

----------------

When adding a positive to a negative, you basically subtract the two values. Then whatever the largest value is, that's the sign of your result. For 20+(-14.3), the positive 20 is larger in absolute value so the overall result is positive. On the other hand, the -14.3 is larger in magnitude compared to the 10, which is why 10+(-14.3) has a negative result.
