The sum of two integers is -129. If one of them is 150,find the other
Sum of integers= -129
1st integer= 150
2nd integer: let it be "y"
y+150=-129
All variables on one side of equal and all numbers on other side of equal but whenever a variables or number is moved from one side to other side of equal its signs change
y=-129-150
After subtracting we get
y=-279
so 2nd integer = -279
To find the other integer, we can use the equation:
x + 150 = -129
Here, "x" represents the other integer we need to find. To isolate "x," we can subtract 150 from both sides of the equation:
x = -129 - 150
Simplifying the right side of the equation:
x = -279
Therefore, the other integer is -279.
150 + n = -129
n = -129 - 150 = -279
