E59/E60(steps on separate paper)
Averages CR 2 p.5, 3 p.8
3. To subtract an integer, add it’s additive inverse What that means to you:
6 – 3 means 6 + (-3) 10 – 16 = k means
10 + (-16) = k
4. Subtracting a Negative Integer Subtracting a negative integer is the same as adding a positive integer. Huh? Say what?
Examples: -(-5) think the opposite of – 5 which is positive 5, so…-(-5) = + 5
That means 12 – (-5) is the same as 12 + 5 = 17
