Q. Simplify.\newline (−16)+17=□ (-16) + 17 = \square
  1. Identify Signs: Identify the signs of the two numbers. −16-16 is negative, and 1717 is positive. They have different signs.
  2. Compare Absolute Values: Compare the absolute values of the numbers to determine the sign of the result. The absolute value of −16-16 is 1616, and the absolute value of 1717 is 1717. Since 1717 is greater than 1616, the result will have the sign of the larger absolute value, which is positive.
  3. Perform Addition: Perform the addition of the two numbers. (−16)+17=1(-16) + 17 = 1. The result is the difference between the two numbers because they have different signs.
