Rewrite the problem below as an equivalent addition expression and evaluate. 10.25 - (3.5)

10.25 + (-3.5) = 6.25

10.25 + (-3,5) = 6.75

10.25 + (3.5) = 13.75

10.25 - (-3.5) = 13.75

The correct option is;

10.25 + (-3.5) = 6.75

Step-by-step explanation:

We note that when adding numbers the negative sign is equivalent to the minus sign which is a mathematical operator. Therefore, when we subtract one number from another, it is equivalent to adding the negative of the other number to the first number

The given expression is 10.25 - (3.5)

The result of the given expression is 10.25 - (3.5) = 6.5

Therefore, we have;

10.25 + (-3.5) = 6.75

step-by-step explanation:

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
