Hey!
So, since the question says the sum of 9 and -16, we'll start by solving that first.
New Equation :
9 + ( -16 ) = ?
Solution {New Equation Solved} :
9 + ( -16 ) = -7
Next, the question says to increase it by 4. So that means we'll add it.
New Equation :
-7 + 4 = ?
Solution {New Equation Solved} :
-7 + 4 = -3
So, this means that the solution to the problem that is the sum of -9 and -16 increased by 4 is -3.
Hope this helps!
