Answer: -46

Step-by-step explanation: Because we are subtracting two negative number, we are moving towards zero. So (-67) - (-1) = -66. We now have -20 left so we subtract that from -66. That will get us -46. Hope this helps.

Hey there!☺


Answer:\boxed{x=-46}


Explanation:


_-67)-(-21)=x

In our first step, we will simplify both sides of the equation:


-67+21=x

Now combine like terms:


(-67+21)=x

Now flip the equation:


-46=x\rightarrowx=-46

x=-46 is your answer.

Hope this helps!☺
