Ineed this answered i know the correct answer to the equation but i don't know what mistake steven made. the students at academy camp are working on math problems to prepare for a math competition. the camp leader puts this problem on the board for the students to work on: -0.46 – 0.6 =. steven does the following problem incorrectly. steven’s - 0.46 – 0.6 = 0.14 explain the error in a complete sentence

1. he didn't put the negative sign on his answer

2. he was supposed to add because it is a negative minus a positive

Steven solved an expression

-0.46+0.6 (which is 0.14) instead of the original -0.46-0.6. Steven's error was adding a positive 0.6 instead of a negative 0.6.

Correctly, adding two negative numbers corresponds to adding their magnitudes in the negative direction on the number line, with the result being negative, so -0.46-0.6 is the same as -(0.46+0.6)=-(1.06)=-1.06

i dont know sorry
