Question

If difference of two integers is -138 and the larger integer is 22 , find the other.

Answer 1

Answer:

-116 is the required integer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the larger no.

and y be the smaller no.

So, y-x=-138 (because the difference is negative, larger no. is subtracted from the smaller no.)

X=22 can be substituted here.

y-22=-138

y=-138+22

y =-116

Answer 2

Answer:

-116

Step-by-step explanation:

let the intger be x

then other integer will be y

x-y= -138

x= -138+y

let the lager no. is y

y=22 given

x= -138+22

×= -116
