Answer:

5

Explanation:

When subtracting a negative number, you will add it.

This is because the negative signs of the subtraction sign and the negative number will cancel out.

This will change the subtraction sign to a positive sign and will switch the negative sign on the number to a positive one.

So, 3 - (-2) will change to 3 + (2)

3 + 2

= 5
