Answer: |10 - (-8)|
The absolute value is 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between two numbers is a subtraction equation.
10 - (-8) Subtracting a negative is like adding a positive
10 + 8 = 18
If you look at it as the first negative sign means -1 multiplied by the next negative number, "Remember that a negative times a negative is a positive!"
Answer:
No solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Original Equation:
5x - 5 = 5x + 7
Add 5 to both sides
5x = 5x + 12
So we already know that this equation is not true, making it no solution
Hope this helped
The reciprocal is just when you flip the number that you're given. the reciprocal of 7/12 is 12/7
Brandon is not correct because he should have added 6 negative unit tiles to isolate the variable in step 2—— the answer would have been x=-1
