Question

The sum of two integers is -16 one of them is 53 find the other

Answer 1

Given:

The sum of the two integer is -16.

Find:

The other interger.

Solution:

Let one interger be y and another integer be x.

y = 53

The sum of the two integer is -16.

One integer + Another integer = sum of integer.

=> x + y = -16

One integer = y = 53

Another integer = x

Sum of integer = -16

So,

=> x + 53 = -16

=> x = -16 - 53

=> x = -69

Another integer = -69

Hence, the another integer is -69.

Important Information:

• Adding two positive integers will always result in a positive integer.
• Adding two negative integers will always result in a negative integer.
• Adding one positive and one negative integer will result in
• Positive number if a positive integer is greater
• Negative number if a negative integer is greater

I hope it will help you.
