Sure, let's solve the given expressions step-by-step together.
1. First Expression: [tex]\(43 - 21\)[/tex]
To find the solution for [tex]\(43 - 21\)[/tex]:
- Start by recognizing the numbers: 43 and 21.
- Subtract 21 from 43.
[tex]\[
43 - 21 = 22
\][/tex]
So, the result of [tex]\(43 - 21\)[/tex] is [tex]\(22\)[/tex].
2. Second Expression: [tex]\(13 - 42\)[/tex]
Now, let's solve [tex]\(13 - 42\)[/tex]:
- Start by recognizing the numbers: 13 and 42.
- Subtract 42 from 13.
Because 42 is larger than 13, the result will be negative.
[tex]\[
13 - 42 = -29
\][/tex]
So, the result of [tex]\(13 - 42\)[/tex] is [tex]\(-29\)[/tex].
To summarize, we solved the two expressions, and the results are:
[tex]\[
43 - 21 = 22
\][/tex]
[tex]\[
13 - 42 = -29
\][/tex]
Thus, the answers to the given expressions are [tex]\(22\)[/tex] and [tex]\(-29\)[/tex] respectively.
