Question

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

Suzy was adding numbers on a number line. She started at –2 and then she added –3. She wrote that her answer was +5.

Is Suzy's answer reasonable?

A.
Yes, it is reasonable because if you add two numbers, you will get a number that is greater than either of the two numbers.

B.
No, it is not reasonable because if you start at –2, you would move 3 places to the left and get –5.

C.
No, it is not reasonable because if you start at –2, you would move 3 places to the right and get +1.

Answer 1

the answer would be B because if you add a negative number to a negative number you get a negative number as your answer

Answer 2

your answer would be (b.) because -2+-3=-5
