Question

The absolute value of the sum of two different integers with the same sign is 8. Pat says there are three pairs of integers that's match this description. Do you agree? Explain

Answer 1

Well let's try and find the pair:

(6, 2)    (-6, -2)

(7, 1)    (-7, -1)

(5,3)     (-5, -3)

We can see there are six pairs of such integers. And if you take the sum of each and take the absolute value it is 8.  So we do not agree with pat.
