(Help please! I'll give a Medal.) (I'm going to be attaching the questions in files.) @LifeOfRiley @Chris00
5+(-7) =-2 correct?
Oof, girl I want to help you but I have something of my own to worry about this evening. I didn't even really have time to do the first one. I'm just an exhausted freshman, not a tutor. You should know what to do with what I taught you. You're on your own. So sorry.
It's okay! :) See ya some other time Riley!
Will do! I'm sure someone else will pop in shortly. :)
Yeah. I'm sure somebody will. Go, and get some rest or what ever you are doing. xD
But being the curious nerd I am I checked and you got it. I'll leave you with one final tip: In Addition and Subtraction (NOTE: NOT DIVISION AND MULTIPLICATION) when you see a negative and a positive, you can hypothetically change the terms slightly to make it a bit easier. Example: 5+-3 is the same as 5-3 OR, on the other hand, 5-(-3) Is the same as 5+3. Keep that in mind as you go along. :)
Did that help, or make it more confusing? :D
It helped! I have one last question to go, it'd be awesome if you could help..?
Sure. Let me see...
Allright, so do you know what the Identity Property of Addition is?
No idea... I mean we learned a little bit about it only in class
Okay, so it means that any number plus zero will still be the same number. Knowing this, look at the problem again. In particular, the last two sections.
See attachment.
@Ms-Brains , @Directrix is legit. When I'm not around, you can trust what he says. He's helping me with a section of geometry which is essentially this but on a wicked higher level.
The the answer would be D Definition of addition..?
Oh, okay! Thanks for helping me guys. :)
mmmm... Not quite. Remember idenrity property?
You're welcome!
I'm just lost here, and I'm going to guess the answer is C Commutative property of addition..?
It's Identity, because 0+e gets simplified to e due to the fact that 0 does not change the outcome.
Oh...I get it, kinda! Thanks Riley! Sorry for making you stay longer!
It's fine. Glad to help. In the meantime, watch this! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vkk1SjfE6mI
He's boring, and the audio is nails on a chalkboard, but HEY, I guess it teaches. XP
Will do. :) Hahahaha you're right. xD
