valuate the expression for j = –2 and k = –1.

Question

j + k =

Answer 1

To evaluate the expression \( j + k \) for \( j = -2 \) and \( k = -1 \), you substitute the values into the expression:

\[ j + k = -2 + (-1) \]

Now, perform the addition:

\[ -2 - 1 = -3 \]

Thus, the value of the expression is:

\[ \boxed{-3} \]
