Answer 3

To solve the expression \(-4.85 + (-2.54)\), you combine the two negative numbers:

\[
-4.85 + (-2.54) = -4.85 - 2.54
\]

Now, add the absolute values:

\[
4.85 + 2.54 = 7.39
\]

Since both numbers were negative, the result will also be negative:

\[
-4.85 + (-2.54) = -7.39
\]

Therefore, the answer is:

**−7.39**

Answer 4

Yes, that is correct.

The expression \(-4.85 + (-2.54)\) simplifies to \(-4.85 - 2.54\), which results in:

\[
4.85 + 2.54 = 7.39
\]

Since both numbers are negative, the final result is:

\[
-7.39
\]

So the correct answer is indeed **−7.39**.

Answer 5

To solve the expression \(4.6 + (-9.04)\), you can think of it as:

\[
4.6 - 9.04
\]

Now, subtract \(9.04\) from \(4.6\):

1. Convert \(4.6\) to a fraction for easier subtraction:
\[
4.6 = 4.60
\]

2. Now perform the subtraction:
\[
4.60 - 9.04 = -4.44
\]

Therefore, the answer is **−4.44**.
