4(3/(8+1) = 4(3/9) = 12/9 = 4/3
4((3/8)+1) = 4(11/8) = 44/8 = 11/2
just depends on which way the equation is written
Answer:
c) 2 + 3 = 5 TRUE
d) 2 + (–3) = -1 True
Step-by-step explanation:
When adding integers (positive and negative whole numbers), there are three cases:
- Positive and positive increases and sum is positive. Ex. 4 + 6 = 10
- Positive and negative where you subtract and take the sign of the larger number. Ex. 3 + -8 = -5 or -3 + 8 = 5
- Negative and negative decrease and the sum if negative. Ex. -4 + -6 = -10.
Use these rules to simplify each expression.
a) 2 + (–3) = -1 not 1 FALSE
b) –3 + 2 = -1 not 5 FALSE
c) 2 + 3 = 5 TRUE
d) 2 + (–3) = -1 True
3 is being added each time, so:
-25,-22,-19,-16,-13,-10,-7,-4,-1,2,5,8
I hope this helps!
