Write a pair of negative integers whose difference is 7.

Given: Difference of two negative integers is 7.

To find: Here we have to find a pair of negative integers whose difference is 7.

Solution:

Let one negative integer be = a

Let second negative integer be = b

So, according to the problem:

a $-$ b = 7

So, in the above equation we can put value of either a or b to get the corresponding value other integer:

Example: 

Let one integer (a) be = $-$1

So,

$-$1 $-$ b = 7

$-$b = 7 $+$ 1

$-$b = 8

b = $-$8

Therefore, $-$1 and $-$8 is a pair negative integers whose difference is 7.

We can get as many pairs as we want by just changing the values of a and b.
