So in the following problem, we're going to translate this phrase into an algebraic expression and simplify.
00:07
So we want to find the sum of negative 22 and 9.
00:11
In this case, our sum is usually going to mean we want to add two things together, and negative 22 and 9 are going to be the things we're adding together.
00:21
So we want to find the sum, or we want to add negative 22 and 9.
00:25
So let's go ahead and do that.
00:27
And let's represent that.
00:28
So the sum of negative 22 and 9, or we are adding negative 22 plus 9.
00:34
So there we have translated into an algebraic expression.
00:38
So let's go ahead and simplify.
00:40
Let's represent our negative 22 in blue and our 9 or positive 9 in red...
