Question

The sum of two integers is ( -458). If one of them is 75, find the other.

Answer 1

AnsWer :

-533.

Solution :

Let other integer be x.

A/Q,

The sum of two integers is -458. If one them is 75.

• X + 75 = -458.

$\tt \dagger \: \: \: \: \: x + 75 = - 458.$

$\tt \longmapsto x + 75 = - 458.$

$\tt \longmapsto x = - 458 - 75$

$\tt \longmapsto x = - 533.$

Therefore, the other integer be -533.

$\rule{200}3$

Verification :

We have,

$\tt \longmapsto x + 75 = - 458$

Where,

• x = -533.

$\tt\longmapsto - 533 + 75 = - 4 58.$

$\tt\longmapsto - 458 = - 458$

LHS = RHS
