Question

write a pair of negative integer and a positive integer whose difference is —82

Answer 1

Note : Zero is neither Positive nor Negative. So, we need to give zero an exception.

Given data : A number 82

To find :

A pair that contains one positive and one negative number which on computation or sum up gives 82 as result.

Solution :

So, If you want to make it simple, start the positives from 83 to infinite on positive scale (83, 84, 85...) , and negatives from -1 to infinite on negative scale (-1, -2, -3,...)

Now, match the corresponding positioned pairs, As in :

(83, -1), (84, -2), (85, -3).......(90, -8),.....(1000, -918)...

Other way is,

• Just take any positive integer.

• Subtract 82 from the positive integer.

• Take additive inverse of the number and pair it with the positive number we took.

Let us take a positive integer 10896. Now, 10896 - 82 = 10814. Additive inverse of 10814 is -10814.

Therefore, the pair will be (10896, -10814).
