Kaylah added -34 + -22 and got the answer -12. What error did Kaylah make? She found the difference of the numbers instead of the sum. She changed the sign of the number 34 instead of the number 22. She chose the incorrect sign for the sum. She did not make an error: -34 + -22 = -12

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

what is the correct answer for -34 + -22

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-56

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's the third one. If you add a negative with a negative, the sum should be negative.

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

I would go with b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh ok.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why you say ?

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

is confusing because a is right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-.-

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's either a or c. Cause the sum has an incorrect sign.

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
