Answer:
Learning to subtract rational numbers by adding the additive inverse can be explained to your child as being the same as finding the opposite. This can even be described to your child as being a similar concept to one that they have worked with in the past where subtraction is the opposite of addition.
Additive inverse can be defined as adding a number with the opposite or the negative of that number to equal zero. The additive inverse of 1 is (-1), the additive inverse of 2 is (-2) and so on.
Example: 5 + (-5) = 0
In this example, (-5) is the additive inverse.
You can then take additive inverse one step when finding the additive inverse when subtracting rational numbers.
Example: 7 - 4 = 7 + (-4)
3 = 3
When finding the inverse, it is important to keep in mind that what you do to one side, you must do the opposite to another. In the example above, because you subtracted a positive four on one side, you are going to add a negative four to the other. This will make the equation equal on both sides.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
they arent similar because the ratio of 8 to 14 and 10 to 18 arent the same.
Answer:
t = 7s + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The goal is to get t alone. So we should move 7s to the other side of the equals to sign. When we move 7s to the other side of the equals to sign the sign changes to -7s. There are no like terms to be collected so the answer should be 7s + 4 for t.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+2)/2 = 0
x + 2 = 0
x = -2
(y - 3)/2 = 2
y - 3 = 4
y = 7
(-2, 7)
Answer:
522 m^2
Step-by-step explanation:
I've circles the numbers that you actually need to solve this problem.
First, find the area of the bigger rectangle by multiplying the length and width.
24*21=504
Then find the area of the smaller rectangle the same way
3*6=18
then add them to get the total area
504+18=522
522 m^2
