What number belongs in the box? \( (-8)-(-5)= \square\)
\( -3 \)
we must do (-8) - (-5) which can also be viewed as 8 - 5 because we can figure the answer out first then put a negative sign in front. this is because the negatives don't change the actual answer in this case, so can be added later on. now, 8 - 5 = 3, and when we add the negative sign, we get -3. this may not work for all of these types pof questions, but for this one, we can do it.
