g-(-43)=19
g+43=19
g=19-43
g=-24
Answer: -24, B.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
g-(-43)=19 => g+43=19
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Now just subtract 43 on both sides
OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):
Ok I thought it was B.
OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):
so -24-43 @iambatman ?

Where did you get the -24
OpenStudy (anonymous):
its 19-43
OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
I don't know why you're doing what you're doing.
OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):
So the answer is D @iambatman ?

When you subtract a negative number, you just add that number.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
When you have a problem as yours, the point is to get the variable (in your case g) on its own
OpenStudy (anonymous):
To do this, you basically do the opposite operation of what already exists to move a number to the other side.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
g - (-45) = 19
negative times a negative = positive
g+45=19
-45 -45
you see 45's get cancelled on the left and you must do what you do on one side to the other.
so g = 19-45
OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):
So it is B?
