Question

What are the possible value for x and y if x=17, y=17, and when x and y are combined they equal 0? explain your reason. I have to explain when they are combined how does it equal to zero what steps where used to get zero?

Answer 1

x-y=17-17=0

Explanation:

The steps I have to follow are:

So that some operation between x and y is equal to zero, what I have to do is subtract x and y. Then I performed the operation I can get the zero I need in the answer.

Then x-y = 17-17 = 0

Any other operation, although it can be performed, the value we need is not obtained
