Question
The difference between an integer x and (-9) is 6. Find all possible values of x.
✓
Answer
The difference between an integer x – (- 9) = 6 or - 9 – x = 6
∴ Value of x
⇒ x – (-9) = 6 or ⇒ -9 – x = 6
⇒ x + 9 = 6 or Answer-x = 6 + 9
⇒ x = 6 – 9 or ⇒ -x = 15
⇒ x = -3 or ⇒ x = -15
Hence, possible values ofx are -3 and -15.
