87 points plz aman is adding –17 + 9. he wants to write –17 as the sum of two numbers so that one of the numbers, when added to 9, will equal 0. how should aman write –17 to complete this problem?

Consider number 17. You know that

17=9+8.

Then for negative numbers you have the same rule (with respect to sign -):

-17=(-9)+(-8).

Since (-9)+9=9+(-9)=9-9=0, you have that

-17+9=(-9)+(-8)+9=(-9+9)+(-8)=0+(-8)=-8.

-17=(-9)+(-8).

41*67/2=1373.5
