Yes on some calculators it will make a difference.
No. Parentheses have no direct effect on the sign of a number.
In an equation, parentheses around a number indicate that the number is being treated as a single unit or value, often affecting the order of operations. In the expression "10 - (-8)," the parentheses around -8 clarify that you are subtracting a negative number. This means that subtracting a negative is equivalent to adding, so "10 - (-8)" simplifies to "10 + 8," resulting in 18.
Accountants use those pointy parentheses that look like this: <> to indicate negative numbers. If your account reads <14.25> it means you owe $14.25
by either putting the negative number first, or by putting the negative number in parentheses. Like this: -9*1=-9 1*(-9)=-9

A negative number in parentheses typically indicates that the number is treated as a negative value, often used in accounting and finance to represent losses or expenses. For example, in financial statements, a number like (500) could signify a loss of 500 units of currency. This notation helps distinguish negative values from positive ones, especially in contexts where clarity is crucial.
