Question 44

Select all true statements about the sums -6 + 10 and 10 + (-6).

  1. Both sums equal 4.Bonne réponse
  2. Swapping the order of two addends leaves the sum unchanged.Bonne réponse
  3. -6 + 10 equals -4, because the leading term is negative.
  4. 10 + (-6) is greater than -6 + 10.

Explication

Each line describes the same pair of moves, six steps left and ten steps right, so both finish four steps above zero and neither arrangement has an advantage. Taking the sign of the leading term would make the two lines disagree even though the moves inside them are identical.
