Question

Subtract 2x-3y+11 from the sum of 2x-3y+7 and ( -5x-7)

Answer 1

Given: The equation is$2x-3y+11$.

We have to subtract the above equation from the sum of$2x-3y+7$ and$( -5x-7)$.

• As we know that the subtraction is an arithmetic operation that represents the operation of removing objects from a collection.
• Subtraction is denoted by the minus(-) sign.
• By using the properties of subtraction, we are solving the above equation.

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

The equation is$2x-3y+11$

The sum of$2x-3y+7$ and$( -5x-7)$ will be:

$\Rightarrow 2x-3y+7+(-5x-7)\\\Rightarrow 2x-3y+7-5x-7\\\Rightarrow -3x-3y$

Now we are subtracting $2x-3y+11$from$-3x-3y$:

$\Rightarrow-3x-3y-(2x-3y+11)\\\Rightarrow -3x-3y-2x+3y-11\\\Rightarrow -5x-11$

Hence, after subtracting$2x-3y+11$ from the sum of$2x-3y+7$ and$( -5x-7)$ we get, the solution is$-5x-11$.
