IM 7.6.18 Lesson: Subtraction in Equivalent Expressions

Find each sum or difference mentally.
[math]\text{-}30+\text{-}10[/math]
[math]\text{-}10+\text{-}30[/math]
[math]\text{-}30-10[/math]
[math]10-\text{-}30[/math]
Lin and Kiran are trying to calculate [math]7\frac{3}{4}+3\frac{5}{6}-1\frac{3}{4}[/math]. Here is their conversation:[br][list][*][b]Lin[/b]: “I plan to first add [math]7\frac{3}{4}[/math] and [math]3\frac{5}{6}[/math], so I will have to start by finding equivalent fractions with a common denominator.”[br][br][/*][*][b]Kiran[/b]: “It would be a lot easier if we could start by working with the [math]1\frac{3}{4}[/math] and [math]7\frac{3}{4}[/math]. Can we rewrite it like [math]7\frac{3}{4}+1\frac{3}{4}-3\frac{5}{6}[/math]?”[/*][/list][br][list][*][b]Lin[/b]: “You can’t switch the order of numbers in a subtraction problem like you can with addition; [math]2-3[/math] is not equal to [math]3-2[/math].”[br][br][/*][*][b]Kiran[/b]: “That’s true, but do you remember what we learned about rewriting subtraction expressions using addition? [math]2-3[/math] is equal to [math]2+\left(-3\right)[/math].”[br] [/*][/list][br]Write an expression that is equivalent to [math]7\frac{3}{4}+3\frac{5}{6}-1\frac{3}{4}[/math] that uses addition instead of subtraction.
If you wrote the [b]terms [/b]of your new expression in a different order, would it still be equivalent? [i]Explain [/i]your reasoning.
