1st you have to know that in mathematiques the signs preceding any number are of paramount importance:
1) addition of 2 digits with different signs:
 a) 8 - 3 = 5
 b)-8 + 3 = -5 (if the negative sign is associated with largest digit, then the subtraction will be negative and vice versa
c) addition of 2 digits with both negative sign
- 5 - 8 = -13 .You jus add up both by keeping the negative sign

2) Multiplication: 2 digits with different signs:
a) (8) x (-3) = -24
b) (-8) x (3) = -24 so (-) x (+) or (+) x (-) is ALWAYS negative

3) Multiplication: 2 digits with SAME signs;
a) +8 x +3 = 24
b) (-8) x (-33) =24 so (-) x (-) or (+) x (+) is ALWAYS POSITIVE

4) what applies on multiplication applies also on division (same principle)

5) Now we come to parenthesis: When you have parenthesis, the sign preceding the parenthesis is also of paramount importance:

a) a positive sign preceding a parenthesis doesn't affect the consents if you remove these parenthesis: +(5 + 3y) = 5+3y or 2(5+3y) = 10+6y

b) a NEGATIVE sign preceding a parenthesis DOES affect the consents if you remove these parenthesis:

-2(4x -2y -3) ==> If you remove the parenthesis by multiplying by (-2), all signs inside will change:  the (+) become ( -) and vice versa,. However mind you, if you have a negative
Now let's take your equation: -15 - ( - 8 ) = -15 +8, remember a negative sign preceding any parenthesis will change  all signs inside if you REMOVE the parenthesis: some examples:
a) -15 + 10 -(4-32x -4y)
1st (-15 + 10) = -5 since the largest number is preceded by a NEGATIVE sign
so : -5 - (4-32x -4y) remove the parenthesis -5 -4 + 32x +4y
b) -(-5-8) -(+5+8) ==> -5-8 -5-8 = -10 - 16 => - 26

How to simply 7a+3(9+5a)?
makvit [3.9K]
To solve for this, we need to use the Distributive Property, which allows us to multiply the number/variable outside of the parenthesis by all numbers/variables inside of the parenthesis. Once we've done that, we can attempt to simplify the equation.
Our current equation is:
7a + 3(9+5a) = 0
Let's use the Distributive Property.
3(9 + 5a)
3(9) + 3(5a)
27 + 15a
Our current equation now is:
7a + 27 + 15a = 0
Combine like-terms.
15a + 7a = 22a
22a + 27 (If this is not being solved, THIS is your answer as an expression)
Subtract 27 from both sides
22a = -27
Divide both sides by 22 to get a.
a = -27/22.
If we are not solving for a, but getting an expression, your answer is:
22a + 27.
If we are solving for a, our answer is:
a = -27/22.
I hope this helps!
