Question

Four expressions are shown below.
Expression A: -1.43+1.75
Expression B: -1.43 -1.75

Expression C: -1.43+(-1.75)
Expression D: -1.43-(-1.75)
Which pairs of expressions have the same value? Select TWO that apply

Answer 1

Let's evaluate each expression:

1. **Expression A:**
\[
-1.43 + 1.75 = 0.32
\]

2. **Expression B:**
\[
-1.43 - 1.75 = -1.43 - 1.75 = -3.18
\]

3. **Expression C:**
\[
-1.43 + (-1.75) = -1.43 - 1.75 = -3.18
\]

4. **Expression D:**
\[
-1.43 - (-1.75) = -1.43 + 1.75 = 0.32
\]

Now we can compare the results:
- Expression A = 0.32
- Expression B = -3.18
- Expression C = -3.18
- Expression D = 0.32

From this analysis, we have:
- Expression A and Expression D have the same value of 0.32.
- Expression B and Expression C have the same value of -3.18.

Thus, the pairs of expressions that have the same value are:
1. Expression A and Expression D
2. Expression B and Expression C

**The correct answers are:** A and D, B and C.
