Question 789983: Having trouble with this concept.Category is "replacement sets" the question posed is- b-(-3b-3)=4b+3.the correct set is 2.....but then the confusion with me is-again-2-(-6-3) which is-2-(-9)=11? the other side of equation is ok(11 of course).Is it because the 2 negative signs(one inside parenthesis)and the positive 2 in front makes the 9 positive???? One final question-any number inside absolute value sign will become positive-if the number is negative....but positive number cannot become negative?
