When subtracting 9 from 4, you can think of it as adding the additive inverse of 9, which is -9. So, 4 - 9 is the same as 4 + (-9), which equals -5. In other words, you are moving 9 units in the negative direction from the starting point of 4 on the number line, resulting in a final position of -5.
Well, darling, 4 minus 9 is -5. Yep, you heard me right, negative five. So if you had 4 apples and someone took away 9, you'd be in the red with 5 apples short. Math can be a real buzzkill sometimes, can't it?
