Question

I will take a picture of the math and show it

Answer 1

1.

we have the following:

`|-5+-1|=|-6|=6`

therefore, the distance is 6

This expression is the ideal one to calculate the distance, because absolute value would gives us the correct valueo of the distance.

2.

a)

`-14+(-42)=-14-42=-56`

b)

`34+(-24)=34-24=10`

c)

`-7+10=3`

d)

`-50+45=-5`

e)

`8+88=96`
