Allison:

D?

Vocaloid:

a net loss means a negative number, so (-14 million) 65 million - (-14 million) = ?

Allison:

Oh o: $79 Million?

Vocaloid:

yup

Allison:

6 + (-27) = A) -33 B) -21 C) 21 D) 33

Simplify |-5| + |6|. A) -30 B) -1 C) 1 D) 11

Allison:

C?

Vocaloid:

these things | | are absolute value symbols you just "erase" the negative signs inside the symbols and then treat them like regular numbers

Vocaloid:

so |-5| becomes 5 and |6| is just 6 since it wasn't negative

Allison:

11? ._.

Vocaloid:

so |-5| + |6| = 5 + 6 = 11 good

Allison:

A mountain climber starts a climb at an elevation of 453 feet above sea level. At his first rest stop he has climbed 162 feet, and by his second rest stop he has climbed another 207 feet.

A) ascend 84 feet B) ascend 78 feet C) descend 84 feet D) descend 78 feet

A submarine is 671 feet below sea level. If it ascends 218 feet and then descends 1363 feet, what is its new position? A) 474 feet below sea level B) 1,363 feet below sea level C) 1,816 feet below sea level D) 2,252 feet below sea level

Allison:

I dunno >.<

Vocaloid:

"ascends" means it's going up in height "descends" means it's going down in height

Vocaloid:

so "If it ascends 218 feet and then descends 1363 feet" means you are adding 218 feet and subtracting 1363 from the original height 671

Vocaloid:

so the calculation is: 671 + 218 - 1363 = ?

Allison:

A..?

Vocaloid:

yup A

Vocaloid:

(I should have wrote a negative sign in front of the 671 whoops)

Allison:

Same answer anyway xD

Allison:

A?

Vocaloid:

you're on the right track, but we usually write distances as positive numbers only, so 50

Allison:

21 + (-33) = A) -54 B) -12 C) 12 D) 54

Allison:

I got B *~*

Vocaloid:

good

Allison:

-18 − (-5) = A) -23 B) -13 C) 13 D) 23

Allison:

Allison:
