if its like this: (these are exponents by the way) -8 - (-4) = 4
* * * * *
Unfortunately, that is wrong!
-8 - (-4) = -8 + 4 = -4 not +4.
Flip the fraction top-to-bottom, and delete the minus sign from the exponent.
The answer to -12x minus 17 equals negative 89 is x equals 6.
Seven minus a negative six equals a positive one
Negative times positive equals negative.
no it equals a positive
Positive (Plus) times Negative (Minus) always equals a negative (minus).
-6^-2 = 1/36
(-3)-(4)=(-3)+4=1 Minus times minus equals plus. The reason for this we need not discuss.
-3 minus -2 is -1.
