Sure, let's break these down step by step.
1. Calculate [tex]\( -6 + (-5) \)[/tex]:
- Start with [tex]\( -6 \)[/tex].
- Adding [tex]\( -5 \)[/tex] means moving further in the negative direction by 5 units.
- Combining these, [tex]\( -6 + (-5) \)[/tex] will give you [tex]\(-11\)[/tex].
So, [tex]\( -6 + (-5) = -11 \)[/tex].
2. Calculate [tex]\( 2 + (-6) \)[/tex]:
- Start with [tex]\( 2 \)[/tex].
- Adding [tex]\( -6 \)[/tex] means moving 6 units in the negative direction from 2.
- When you move 6 units to the left from 2, you end up at [tex]\( -4 \)[/tex].
So, [tex]\( 2 + (-6) = -4 \)[/tex].
Thus, the results are:
[tex]\[
\begin{array}{c}
-6 + (-5) = -11, \\
2 + (-6) = -4.
\end{array}
\][/tex]
