Is (3 - c) the same as (c - 3)? why?​

Sagot :

Yes, because if your going to change the places of the said terms it would be like this (-c+3), but (-c+3) is not the same as (c-3) but you can always make (-c+3) into (c-3). Since the first term is negative which is -c then we need to multiply (-c+3) into -1 to make the -c positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's the solution:

(-c+3)=0

-1(-c+3)=0

(c+3)=0

Negative times negative is positive.

Therefore, the two given terms are likely the same.

I hope you understand. I'm really not good in explaining, only solving i hope it helps
