Answers
Answer:
(i) 15 + (−8) = 7
(ii) (−16) + 9 = −7
(iii) (−7) + (−23) = −30
(iv) (−32) + 47 = 15
(v) 53 + (−26) = 27
(vi) (−48) + (−36) = −84
2..(i) 153 + (−302) = −149
(ii) 1005 + (−277) = 728
(iii) (−2035) + 297 = −1738
(iv) (−489) + (−324) = −813
(v) (−1000) + 438 = −562
(vi) (−238) + 500 = 262
3(i) Additive inverse of −83 = −(−83) = 83
(ii) Additive inverse of 256 = −(256) = −256
(iii) Additive inverse of 0 = −(0) = 0
(iv) Additive inverse of 2001 = −(−2001) = 2001
.4..(i) −42 − 28 = (−42) + (−28) = −70
(ii) 42 −(−36) = 42 + 36 = 78
(iii) -53 - (-37) = (-53) - (-37) = -16
(iv) -34 - (-66) = -34 + 66 = 32
(v) 0 - 318 = -318
(vi) (-240) - (-153) = -87
(vii) 0 - (-64) = 0 + 64 = 64
(viii) 144 - (-56) = 144 + 56 = 200
5..Sum of −1032 and 878 = −1032 + 878
= -154
Subtracting the sum from −34, we get
−34 − (−154)
= (−34)+ 154
= 120
