Solve the following.
(i) The sum of two integers is – 20. If one integer is 20, find the other integer.
(ii) The sum of two integers is 147. If one integer is – 59, find the other integer.​

Answer 1

Answer:

( i ) 20 + x = -20

x = -20 - 20

x = -40

verify

20 - 40 = -20

( ii ) x - 59 = 147

x = 147 + 59

x = 206

verify

206 - 59 = 147
