5 + (-3) -6 - (-1)

Answer 1

1. Set up simplified!
`5+(-3-6-(-1))`
2. Do it across, in order! Shown below.

`5+(-3)=2 2-6=-4 -4-(-1) -4+1=-3`

So your answer should be -3.

Hope I helped!

Answer 2

The answer is -3. Adding a negative onto a positive is just like subtracting from the positive. So, first off, 5+(-3) is 2. Then, subtracting 6 from the 2 will give you a negative number, -4. Subtracting a negative changes the sign to be a plus, so you plus one onto the -4. This leaves you with the answer of -3.
