Sure! Let's solve the addition step-by-step.
When you add two negative numbers, you add their absolute values together, and then attach a negative sign to the result.
1. Start with the two numbers: [tex]\( -1331 \)[/tex] and [tex]\( -11 \)[/tex].
2. Ignore the negative signs for a moment, and add their absolute values:
[tex]\[
1331 + 11 = 1342
\][/tex]
3. Since both original numbers were negative, the result of the addition will also be negative.
4. Therefore, the sum of [tex]\( -1331 \)[/tex] and [tex]\( -11 \)[/tex] is:
[tex]\[
-1342
\][/tex]
So, [tex]\((-1331) + (-11) = -1342\)[/tex].
