Question

Verify that - (-x) = x
for
x = -13/17​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

-(-x)=x

-[-(-13/7)]

= -(13/7)

= -13/7

Answer 2

Given,

-(-x) is the true value of x

So,

x =x

Then,

We verified that the value of x is same as -(-x)

Here,

we have to substitute and verify that both answer are equal

=>x = -13/17

=>-(-x)= -13/17

x= -13/17

x=-(-x)

-13/17 = -13/17
