PLEASE ANSWER ASAP! MUST BE CORRECT! MORE POINTS GIVEN!!! Sally said that when you add or subtract positive or negative decimals, you can change the order of the decimals and still get the same answer.
Use these decimals to answer the questions:
–6.2, 5.71, –3.96, 2.84

Write a rule about changing the order of the numbers in adding and in subtracting positive and negative decimals.

Answers

These are the two rules for when a and b are positive numbers.
a + b = b + a
a - b ≠ b -a
a - b = -b + a

For example:

5.71 + 2.84 = 2.84 + 5.71
8.55 = 8.55

5.71 - 2.84 ≠ 2.84 - 5.71
2.87 ≠ -2.87

5.71 - 2.84 = -2.84 + 5.71
2.87 = 2.87



These are the rules for when a and b are negative numbers.
a + b = b + a
a - b = b + a

For example,

-6.2 + (-3.96) = -3.96 + (-6.2)
-6.2 - 3.96 = -3.96 - 6.2
-10.16 = -10.16

-6.2 - (3.96) = -3.96 + (-6.2)
-10.16 = -10.16



Also, if a is a positive number, while b is a negative number, we see these rules:
a + b = a - b
a - b = a + b

For example,

5.71 + (-6.2) = 5.71 - 6.2
-0.49 = -0.49

5.71 - (-6.2) = 5.71 + 6.2
11.91 = 11.91


Also, if a is a negative number while b is a positive number, then these rules will apply:
a + b = b - a
a - b = -b - a

For example,

-3.96 + 2.84 = 2.84 - 3.96
-1.12 = -1.12

-3.96 - 2.84 = -2.84 - 3.96
-6.8 = -6.8


I hope this helps! :)

What is the answer to -12(k+4)=60

Answers

-12(k+4)=60\n\nk+4 = -5\n\n\boxed {k =-9}
-12 (K+4) = 60
Using Distributive Property:
-12K -48  =60
then 
-12 K = 60 + 48
-12K = 108
Divide both sides by  -12 

Then
K = -9

2+2=5 does anyone know how that is and don't say it isn't I want to see what you say

Answers

Actually I have no clue maybe because they arent smart or wasn't thinking straight at the time. 
2 + 2 = 4

2 + 2 = 5 is simply impossible and illogical!!

Perhaps maybe if it were part of a bigger & more complex equation and somehow 2 = 3, THEN it would make sense.

Is 1/2x=21 42 i need to be sure

Answers

1/2x=21
That means if you take half of the x value, it would be 21. All you have to do in this situation is to double 21. So yes, it is 42.

well if you equation is 1/2x=21 then you answer would be x=21

because if you make 1/2 a decimal it is 0.5 and you want to have x alone so you would divide 1/2 by 0.5 and then you would have 1x=21 which is x=21
