Something might be missing from your question or is there a certain equation for this question? @Divine01

Answer 5

Hi @Divine01 ! I definitely agree with @Austin1617 and @LocalHero7 , because 3.09 is the answer to the equation. Let's work it out to prove it. OK, so, when you add 5.1 + -2.01, you can simply do the reciprocal of the problem. Another way of saying it is just do the opposite. So, you can just do 5.1 - 2.01. To make it more clear, instead of doing 5.1 plus negative 2.01, you would do 5.1 minus positive 2.01. It is equivalent. Trust me it is called reciprocal. Ok, so when you subtract 5.1 - 2.01, you get 3.09. So, if that is not on the answers, maybe you typed something wrong, I don't know what you did. But, I know 100% that [5.1] + [-2.01] = 3.09. Great question, @Divine01 ! I'll be happy to answer some more of your questions, but this answer is all I got. 3.09. Ciao! - @sarahjoy26
