Question

What is the value of s – 11.5 when s = –4.6

Answer 1

So you put -4.6 in where s is:

-4.6-11.5

Then I see that your subtracting so its going to be an even smaller negative solution:

-4.6-11.5=-16.1

You can check by taking -16.1 and adding 11.5 you get s which is -4.6

:D

Answer 2

`\rm s=-4.6 \\ -4.6-11.5=-(4.6+11.5) \\ \\ 11.50+ \\ \underline{~~4.60} \\ 16.10 \\ \\ \boxed{\bold{Answer:-16.10}}`
