Chapter 1: Problem 38

Find each sum without the use of a number line. $$10+(-3)+(-8)$$

Short Answer

Expert verified
The sum of \(10+(-3)+(-8)\) is \(-1\).

Step by step solution

01

Identify positive and negative integers

In this exercise, \(10\) is a positive integer while \(-3\) and \(-8\) are both negative integers.
02

Add the positive and negative integers separately

Add the positive integers together and the negative integers together separately. Here, we only have one positive integer which is \(10\), and the sum of the negative integers \(-3\) and \(-8\) gives you \(-11\).
03

Add the results from step 2

Put together the sum of the positive integer from step 2 and the sum of negative integers from step 2, which would be \(10 + (-11)\).
04

Solve

Since \(10 + (-11)\) equals \(-1\), that's your final result.
