Hello there! Using the rules of addition, we can identify that when adding a positive to a negative number, the result shifts toward the positive side but takes the sign of the greater number. It will be demonstrated in this problem to simplify how problems like this are solved:
Step 1: Rewrite the problem
-14 + 7 = ?
Step 2: Since we’re adding 7 to a negative number, that means the negative number decreases by the quantity it’s being added by.
This means we would have to really subtract 7 from 14 to get 7.
Step 3: Keep the sign of the greater number
Since 14 is greater than 7, we will keep the negative sign in accordance.
Step 4: Simplify
-14 + 7 = -7
Using the rules of addition, we will find that -14 + 7 = -7. If you need additional help, let me know and I will gladly assist you.
The answer is C.) x = 7; x = -6
2X-2=2X+9
Add 2
2X=2X+11
Subract 2X
0= 11
This has no solution to this problem
terms is x first then terms in y and constant after the equals
Its C
Answer: Kate = £102
Sanjeev = £153
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that for every £2 that kat collects, sanjeev collects £3. This csn be represented in a fraction as:
Kat = 2/5
Sanjeev = 3/5
The amount that each collects will be:
Kat = 2/5 × £255
= 2 × £51
= £102
Sanjeev = 3/5 × £255
= 3 × £51
= £153
