Question

Evaluate the following: −3 − (−2). (5 points) a. -5 B. -1 c. 1 d. -6

Answer 1

Answer:

B:-1

Step-by-step explanation:

-3-(-2)=-3+2=-1

Answer 2

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

$- 3 - ( - 2)$

When there is a (-) in front of an expression in parentheses, change the sign of each term in the expression

$- 3 + 2$

Here, 3 > 2 , So, we have to enter the sign of 3 which is negative.

Calculate:

$- 1$

Some rules:

$( + ) \times ( + ) = ( + )$

$( + ) \times ( - ) = ( - )$

$( - ) \times ( - ) = ( + )$

$( - ) \times ( + ) = ( - )$

Hope this helps..
