Question

Verify a-(-b) =a+b for the values of a=-8 and b=-4

Answer 1

L.H.S = a-(-b)= -8 - (-(-4)) = -8 -(4) = -8-4 = -12

R.H.S = a+b = (-8)+(-4) = -8-4 = -12

therefore , L.H.S= R.H.S

Hence proved

Answer 2

Heya !!



a = -8 and b = -4





A - ( - B ) = A + B




-8 - ( 4 ) = -8 - 4




- 12 = - 12




LHS = RHS.




Hence,

a - ( -b ) = a + b.
