Question

The quotient of the opposite of 30 and 6 plus the opposite of 8

Answer 1

First, let's turn this sentence into a mathematical expression:
The quotient of the opposite of 30 and 6 means we're dividing negative 30 by 6. The next part, "plus the opposite of 8" means we want to add -8 to whatever we get from -30/6. So we have:

`(-30)/(6)+(-8)`

`-5+(-8)`

`-13`
