The sum of two integers is -8. If one of them is 40, find the difference between them. Full Marks : 1 88
 68
 72
 48​

Answer 1

Answer:

option 1

let the two numbers be x and y

x+ y = -8

given one of them is 40

so let x be 40

if x = 40 then y will be -48

now we need to find the difference between the numbers

that is 40 - (-48) = 40+48 = 88

so the option 1 is the right answer
