Answer:

_-3__ + (-9) = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

___ + (-9) = -12

-9 is being added to the blank. You want the blank alone (isolated) on the left side. The opposite operation to adding a -9 is to add a positive 9.

You must do the same operation to both sides of an equation.

Add 9 to both sides.

___ + (-9) + 9 = -12 + 9

___ + 0 = -3

___ = -3

Answer: -3

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

___ + (-9) = -12

Adding a negative number is the same as subtracting

___ - 9 = -12

To isolate the blank, we can add 9 to both sides of the equal sign so there won't be a -9 on the left side

___ - 9 + 9 = -12 + 9

___ = -12 + 9

___ = -3

Therefore, the number is -3.

I hope this helps!
