A) -7 + 8 = 1

b) 13 + -9 = 4
c) 23 + -9 = 14
d) -17 + 18 = 1
e) 14 + -26 = -12
f) -8 - 7 = -15
g) 13 - (+9) = 4
h) 23 – (9) = 20
i) 18 - -7 = -25
j) 26 - -14 = -40

are these correct?

Answer 1

a) 1

b) 4

c) 14

d) 1

e) 12

f) 15

h) 20

i) 25

j) 40

Explanation:

Some mistakes have been made.

Correct answers so far:

a, b, c, d, e, f are correct

h, maybe

Corrections:

g)

13 - ( + 9) can be rewritten as 13 - 9, which is 4

h) I assume the 9 is supposed to be a
`√( 9)` ? If so, then the answer is correct

i) 18 - -7 can be rewritten as 18 + 7 = 25. The two negatives turn into a positive.

j)26 - -14 = 40. The two negatives turn into a positive.
