Q. Which of the following is a correct interpretation of the expression −7−(−11)? -7-(-11) ? \newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) Start at −7-7 on the number line and move 1111 to the left.\newline(B) Start at −7-7 on the number line and move 1111 to the right.\newline(C) Start at −11-11 on the number line and move 77 to the left.\newline(D) Start at −11-11 on the number line and move 77 to the right.
  1. Understand the expression: Understand the expression −7−(−11)-7-(-11). This expression involves subtracting a negative number from −7-7. Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding its positive counterpart.
  2. Rewrite the expression: Rewrite the expression by changing the subtraction of a negative number to addition. −7−(−11)-7-(-11) becomes −7+11-7 + 11.
  3. Perform the addition: Perform the addition. Starting at −7-7 on the number line and adding 1111 means moving 1111 units to the right. −7+11=4-7 + 11 = 4.
  4. Match with interpretation: Match the result with the correct interpretation. The correct interpretation is the one that describes starting at −7-7 and moving 1111 units to the right, which results in the value 44.
  5. Select correct answer: Review the answer choices and select the one that matches the interpretation from Step 44. The correct answer is (B) Start at −7-7 on the number line and move 1111 to the right.
