Sometimes. For example: (-4) - (-3) = -1 (-4) - (-4) = 0 (-4) - (-5) = 1

You would use the reverse operation for a negative integer being added or subtracted.To add a negative integer, subtract its absolute value (positive value).Example : 4 + (-3) = 4 - (3) = 1To subtract a negative integer, add its absolute (positive) value.Example : 4 - (-2) = 4 + 2 = 6Beginning with a negative, adding a negative increases the negative value.Example : (-4) + (-3) = -7Subtracting a negative reduces the negative value.Example (-4) - (-1) = (-3) * this is the same as (-4) + 1 = (-3)

Sometimes. For example: (-4) - (-3) = -1 (-4) - (-4) = 0 (-4) - (-5) = 1
-8 + 4 - (-9) = -8 + 4 + 9 = -8 + 13 = 5.

Yes, a negative plus a positive equals a negative IF the positive number is less than the negative number. For instance:-4 + 3 = -1BUT-4 + 5 = 1It just depends on the numbers involved.Just remember this rule:Subtract and take the sign of the largest number.For instance:In the problem -4 + 3 = -1, subtract by solving the problem 4 - 3 = 1. Since 4 is greater than 3 and 4 is negative, the answer would be negative.In the problem -4 + 5 = 1 , subtract by solving the problem 5 - 4 = 1. Since 5 is greater than 4 and 5 is positive, the answer would be positive.
4 because you are suppose to subtract and keep thesign of the bigger number
