PLEASE MARK BRAINLIST MY ANSWER

Answer 2

Sum of 2 numbers = -2

One of them is = -14/5

Let the other one be 'x'.

SO, our equation becomes =

$-\frac{14}{5}$ + x = -2

$\frac{-14 + 5x}{5}$ = -2

-14 + 5x = -2 × 5

-14 + 5x = -10

5x = -10 + 14

5x = 14 - 10

5x = 4

x = 4/5

Answer = 4/5

_________________________________________________

Let us verify -

-14/5 + 4/5 = -2

$\frac{-14 + 4}{5}$ = -2

-10/5 = -2

-2 = -2

LHS = RHS

Hence, verified..............
