Question

~ -8 - (-6)

~ -3 - (-7)
~ 6 - (-7)
~ -2 - (-15)
~ -12 - 3
~ -4 - 12
~ 9 - (-5)

Answer 1

Using the rules of arithmetic, we can simplify the given expressions as follows:

-8 - (-6) = -8 + 6 = -2

-3 - (-7) = -3 + 7 = 4

6 - (-7) = 6 + 7 = 13

-2 - (-15) = -2 + 15 = 13

-12 - 3 = -15

-4 - 12 = -16

9 - (-5) = 9 + 5 = 14

Therefore, the simplified expressions are:

-2, 4, 13, 13, -15, -16, and 14.
