Question

(a + 3)-(a + 2) Please help bc im stuck :>

Answer 1

1

Explanation:

1. Rewrite

: (a+3)-(a+2) = a + 3 - a - 2

2. Subtract

: 3-2 = 1 ... so now the equation is a + 1 - a

3. Combine like terms

: a -a = 0 (the a's cancel out) ... now you're left with 1

Since there is nothing left, your answer is 1.

Answer 2

Answer: 1

Explanation:

We are given (a + 3) - (a + 2)

To think of this another way, we can distribute the negative sign out into the (a + 2)

(a + 3) -(a) - (2)

Now our expresssion looks like this:

(a + 3) - a - 2

Simplifying, we get

a - a + 3 - 2

The a terms cancel leaving us with

3-2

and that equals

1
