Hi can you please help me with this question. -9-17=10

3 answers

You already owe your friend $7 and then borrow another $17.
What do you owe her now?

How in the world did you end up with 10?
Did you just put down a random number, hoping somebody would just give you the answer??
Typo: should say

"You already owe your friend $9 and then borrow another $17."
-9 - 17 would be the equivalent of 9 + 17 with a negative sign in front of it. therefore, the answer is not 10, but -26.
