Q. Which expression has the same value as 12 1-2 ?\newline2+1 -2+1 \newline2+(1) -2+(-1) \newline1+(2) -1+(-2) \newline1(2) 1-(-2)
  1. Find Equivalent Expression: We need to find the expression that is equivalent to 121-2. Calculate 121-2. 12=11 - 2 = -1
  2. Calculate 121-2: Compare the result with the first option: 2+1-2+1.\newlineCalculate 2+1-2 + 1.\newline2+1=1-2 + 1 = -1\newlineCheck if it matches the result from the first step.\newline1=1-1 = -1, so this expression is equivalent.
  3. Compare with 2+1-2+1: Compare the result with the second option: 2+(1)-2+(-1).\newlineCalculate 2+(1)-2 + (-1).\newline2+(1)=3-2 + (-1) = -3\newlineCheck if it matches the result from the first step.\newline31-3 \neq -1, so this expression is not equivalent.
  4. Calculate 2+1-2+1: Compare the result with the third option: 1+(2)-1+(-2).\newlineCalculate 1+(2)-1 + (-2).\newline1+(2)=3-1 + (-2) = -3\newlineCheck if it matches the result from the first step.\newline31-3 \neq -1, so this expression is not equivalent.
  5. Check for Equivalence: Compare the result with the fourth option: 1(2)1-(-2).\newlineCalculate 1(2)1 - (-2).\newline1(2)=1+2=31 - (-2) = 1 + 2 = 3\newlineCheck if it matches the result from the first step.\newline313 \neq -1, so this expression is not equivalent.
