Chapter 1: Problem 59

Simplify each series of additions and subtractions. $$-23-11-(-7)+(-25)$$

Short Answer

Expert verified
The simplified result of the series \( -23-11-(-7)+(-25) \) is -59.

Step by step solution

01

Identify the operations and numbers

Identify the operations and the positive or negative numbers involved. The series in question is \( -23-11-(-7)+(-25) \)
02

Simplify Negative Signs

Simplify the negatives. Remember that when a subtraction sign immediately precedes a negative number, this can be simplified to addition. The revised series becomes \( -23-11+7+(-25) \)
03

Perform Addition and Subtraction

Lastly, perform the simplifications in order: first perform the subtraction and then perform addition. So, add the negative numbers together and then add 7. This simplified down to \(-23-11-25+7\).
04

Final Simplification

Perform the operations which simplifies to \(-59\).
