Bot use the additive inverse to find -24 4/5 - 6 7/10. pick one of these answers. 31 1/2. -31 1/10. -31 1/2. -18 1/10.
To find the sum -24 4/5 - 6 7/10 using additive inverse, we need to change the sign of the second number and then find the sum.
-6 7/10 can be written as -6 - 7/10.
Now, we can add -24 4/5 and -6 - 7/10 together:
-24 4/5 + (-6 - 7/10) = -24 4/5 - 6 - 7/10
To add these fractions and whole numbers, we need to find a common denominator. In this case, we can use 10 as the common denominator.
Converting -24 4/5 to an improper fraction:
-24 4/5 = (-24 * 5 + 4) / 5 = -124 / 5
Now, we have:
-124/5 - 6 - 7/10
To subtract fractions, they need to have the same denominator. Therefore, let's convert 6 to an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 10:
6 = 6 * 10/10 = 60/10
Now, we have:
-124/5 - 60/10 - 7/10
Combining the numerators:
= (-124 - 60 - 7) / 5 = (-191) / 5
Expressing the answer as a mixed number:
= -191/5 = -38 1/5
Therefore, the correct answer is -38 1/5.

Bot determine the distance between 6.5 and -7.2 on a number line. pick one of these answers. 13.7 -13.7 -0.7 0.7
To determine the distance between 6.5 and -7.2 on a number line, we need to subtract the smaller value from the larger value and take the absolute value of the result.
|-7.2 - 6.5| = |-13.7| = 13.7
Therefore, the correct answer is:
13.7
Bot solve the mathematical problem involving absolute value. 21 / 3 + 4 + (2-3). pick one of these answers. 4 6 10 12
To solve the mathematical problem involving absolute value: 21 / 3 + 4 + (2-3), let's break it down step by step:
First, calculate the values inside parentheses:
2 - 3 = -1
Next, perform the division:
21 / 3 = 7
Now, substitute the calculated values back into the expression:
7 + 4 + (-1)
Next, add the numbers:
7 + 4 = 11
Finally, add the negative number:
11 + (-1) = 10
Therefore, the correct answer is:
10
Bot solve the mathematical problem involving absolute value. ( (1/2) (-8) ) + (10 - 4). pick one of these answers. 2 -10 -2 10
To solve the mathematical problem involving absolute value: ( (1/2) (-8) ) + (10 - 4), let's simplify it step by step:
First, simplify the expression inside the parentheses:
(1/2) (-8) = -4
Now, we can substitute the value we found into the original expression:
-4 + (10 - 4)
Next, simplify the expression inside the parentheses:
10 - 4 = 6
Now, substitute the value back into the expression:
-4 + 6
Finally, perform the addition:
-4 + 6 = 2
Therefore, the correct answer is:
2
To find the additive inverse of a number, you simply change the sign of the number. In this case, we need to find the additive inverse of -24 4/5 - 6 7/10.
Step 1: Change the sign of -24 4/5 - 6 7/10 to make it positive.
24 4/5 + 6 7/10
Step 2: Add the two numbers together.
24 4/5 + 6 7/10 = 31 1/2
Therefore, the correct answer is 31 1/2.
