(a) 25
(b) (-25)
C. 15
d. nota

Answer 1

heya

here is ur answer

option (a) is correct answer

ACQ :-

let X be the another number

-5+ X=. 20

X = 20+5

X= 25

Answer 2

Concept:

In contrast to adding two negative integers, which produces a sum with a negative sign, adding two positive integers produces positive integers. However, adding two distinct signed integers will only produce subtraction, with the sign of the result matching that of the bigger number.

Given:

Sum of two Integer = 20

Value of the first Integer = -5

Find:

Value of the second Integer

Solution:

Let the value of the second Integer be 'x'.

As the sum of both integers is given to be 20

( -5 + x ) should be equal to 20

-5 + x = 20

x = 20 + 5

x = 25

As we have assumed x as the value of the second Integer

So, we can say that value of the second Integer is 25.

Hence the value of the other Integer came out to be 25 after solving.
