Question

Using the interactive tool, determine which expressions result in a sum of 6. Select all that apply:

A. 8 + 2
B. (-4) + (-2)
C. (-3) + 9
D. 7 + (-1)

Answer 1

To determine which expressions result in a sum of 6, evaluate each expression. The expressions that result in a sum of 6 are C. (-3) + 9 and D. 7 + (-1).

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine which expressions result in a sum of 6, we can simply evaluate each expression and see if the result is 6.

Checking each expression:

1. A. 8 + 2: This equals 10, not 6. So, it does not result in a sum of 6.
2. B. (-4) + (-2): This equals -6, not 6. So, it does not result in a sum of 6.
3. C. (-3) + 9: This equals 6, which is the desired sum of 6. So, it does result in a sum of 6.
4. D. 7 + (-1): This equals 6, which is the desired sum of 6. So, it does result in a sum of 6.

Therefore, the expressions that result in a sum of 6 are C. (-3) + 9 and D. 7 + (-1).
