Question

solve the following
a.8-(4)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given:- 8-(4)

=> 8 - 4

=> 4

Hence final answer is 4.

Answer 2

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

When you add two negative numbers together, you “add the number parts”, then keep the sign.

(-8) + (-4) = (keep the negative sign) (8 + 4) = -12

Whenever you add two numbers with the same sign, whether plus or minus, you add the numbers and keep the sign:

(+8) + (+4) = (keep the plus sign) (8 + 4) = +12

Next, you will see problems where you add numbers with different signs:

When you add two numbers that have two different signs, you:

keep the sign of the larger number

subtract the smaller number from the larger number

(-8) + (+4) = (keep the minus sign) (8 - 4) = – 4

(+8) + (-4) = (keep the positive sign) (8 - 4) = +4
