Hey Miranda!
Let me help you out...
First, keep in mind that they just put these negative signs to make the thing looks difficult to solve :)
Do you remember this:
[tex]Minus * Minus = Plus
[/tex]
Well this the same thing. We gonna multiply the two negative signs that are behind the parentheses together and make it plus sign
Here is how it works
[tex]8-[-(-3)]
=8 + (-3)
=8 - 3
=5[/tex]
The correct answer is option A (5)
Good luck with your studies, Miranda.
