Answer 1

Given:

`m=0.56x-0.25`

`n=0.20x-0.03`

To find:

The sum of m and n.

Solution:

We have,

`m=0.56x-0.25`

`n=0.20x-0.03`

The sum of m and n is:

`m+n=(0.56x-0.25)+(0.20x-0.03)`

Combining the like terms, we get

`m+n=(0.56x+0.20x)+(-0.25-0.03)`

`m+n=(0.76x)+(-0.28)`

`m+n=0.76x-0.28`

Therefore, the sum of m and n is
`m+n=0.76x-0.28`.
