Answer:
From 12 o'clock position clockwise:
-12
-1
11
12
Explanation:
y = -1 (given).
x + y = 11
Plug in -1 for y in the equation (given):
x + (-1) = 11
Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Add 1 to both sides of the equation:
x - 1 (+1) = 11 (+1)
x = 11 + 1
x = 12
x + y = ?
x = 12
y = -1
Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:
12 + (-1) = 12 - 1 = 11
xy = ?
x = 12
y = -1
Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables. Note that when you multiply a negative and a positive number, your answer will be negative:
12 * -1 = -12
