Question

Which of the following is equal to (6 - m)?

a)-(m - 6)
b)m - 6
c)-(m + 6)
d)NONE

Answer 1

To determine what an equivalent expression would be simply take the expression and place the terms along with their integer signs in different positions.

For instance instead of writing 6 - m , place the m in front and 6 after to get -m + 6.

Factor out the negative sign to see the resulting expression.

-( m - 6)

The correct response would be A.
