You are asked to find two numbers such that x and (-x) differ by 150.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So \"x+=+-x+%2B+150\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2x+=+150\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+75\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To check, just sub in 75 in the original equation
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+-x+%2B+150\"
\n" ); document.write( "When x = 75 is this true?
\n" ); document.write( "\"75+=+-75+%2B+150\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"75+=+75\" which is ture, so x =75 is correct
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
