Question

The sum of two integers is 30. If one of the integer is – 42, then find the other.

with steps

Answer 1

Correct Question:-

The sum of two integers is 30. If one of the integer is – 42, then find the other.

Given:-

• Sum of integers = 30
• One integer = –42

To Find:-

• Another integer

Solution:-

• Let the second integer be x

$\large{ \rm \longmapsto \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: - 45 + x = 30}$

$\large{ \rm \longmapsto \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: x = 30 + 45}$

$\large{ \rm \longmapsto \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \underline{\boxed { \mathfrak{ \purple{x = 75}}}}}$

Hence:-

• The value of x is 75

Verification:-

Put value of x as 75

$\large{ \rm \longmapsto \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 75 + ( - 45) = 30}$

$\large{ \rm \longmapsto \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 75 - 45 = 30}$

$\large{ \rm \longmapsto \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \underline{ \boxed{ \mathfrak{ \green{30 = 30}}}}}$
