The image you provided is a reference sheet that explains the rules for adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing integers (positive and negative whole numbers). It does not contain a specific homework problem to solve.
However, I can explain how to use these rules to solve integer problems if you have one in mind! Here’s a quick summary of what the chart says:
Addition:
- Same signs? Add the numbers and keep the sign.
Example: –5 + –8 = –13
- Different signs? Subtract the smaller number from the larger one, and use the sign of the larger number.
Example: –6 + 4 = –2 (because 6 > 4, and –6 is negative)
Subtraction:
- Change subtraction to addition by adding the opposite.
Example: 9 – (–12) becomes 9 + 12 = 21
Multiplication & Division:
- Same signs → answer is positive
Example: –5 × –6 = 30; 45 ÷ 9 = 5
- Different signs → answer is negative
Example: –6 × 8 = –48; 35 ÷ –5 = –7
If you’d like me to solve a specific integer problem, please type it here — for example:
“What is –7 + 12?” or “What is 20 ÷ –4?”
I’m happy to help with any math question! 😊
