Question

What is the answer to this problem-
(a-3b+5)-(-a+2b+3)

Answer 1

`\displaystyle 2 - 5b + 2a`

Explanation:

To avoid confusion, distribute that negative amongst all terms in the second set of parentheses:

`\displaystyle 2a - 5b + 2 = (a - 3b + 5) - (-a + 2b + 3)`

** The above answer is written in reverse, which is the exact same result.
