A subtraction problem can be turned in to an addition problem because of negative numbers. Take 5-2=3 for example. If you change 5-2 into an addition problem then you would but he addition sign and a negative sign on 2. This will then leave you with the problem looking like 5+ -2. If you add 5 and -2 you will still get three.
Let's see....
Let's first simplify step-by-step.
2/4 - 8z + 2(2-5)
= 1/2 + - 8z + -6
Combine Like Terms:
= 1/2 + -6
= (- 8z) + (1/2 + -6)
=(- 8z) + (1/2 + -6)
= - 8z + -11/2

Our answer:
= - 8z + -11/2
