Foster’s answer to the question he wrote for Ranger was 7x+(-3), while Ranger’s answer was 7x-3.They both checked their work by letting x=5, and they both claim to be correct. Are they both correct?Explain.

They are both correct :)

Step-by-step explanation:

They are both correct because 7x + (-3) is the same thing as 7x - 3 if you simplify it.

When you simplify it, you change the expression to:

7x + 1 (-3)

So now you have to distribute the 1 which gives you:

7x - 3

..since positive x negative is negative.

Hope that helped!

answer is x<
