Answer

Problem

Addition of integers:
\$ (- 7) + (- 6) + 34 \$

Hint

The integers are

\$ - 7,- 6 and 34 \$

Formula:

Here we apply the rule of addition of positive and negative integers

\$ (+) + (-) = "use the sign of larger absolute value number" \$

Step

Let us add the positive and negative integers

\$ -7 + (- 6) + 34 \$

Step

After simpification

\$-7 - 6 + 34 \$

Step

After adding the positive and negative integers

\$+34 - 13 \$

Step

After adding

\$ 21 \$

Step

Therefore, the addition of integers is \$ 21 \$.

Choice.A

Incorrect: It inaccurately reflects the total of the given integers

Choice.B

Incorrect as it summed integers without regard for signs, resulting in (-7) + (- 6) + 34 ≠ 42

Choice.C

This representation is accurate as it precisely reflects the total of the given integers

Choice.D

Incorrect as it only presents the final number without executing the necessary addition calculation
