The correct Answer is:
To solve the expression \((-5) + 3\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the numbers and their signs We have two numbers: \(-5\) (which is negative) and \(3\) (which is positive). ### Step 2: Determine which number has a greater absolute value The absolute value of \(-5\) is \(5\), and the absolute value of \(3\) is \(3\). Since \(5 > 3\), \(-5\) has a greater absolute value. ### Step 3: Subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value Now, we will subtract the absolute value of \(3\) from the absolute value of \(-5\): \[ 5 - 3 = 2 \] ### Step 4: Assign the sign to the result Since \(-5\) has the greater absolute value and it is negative, the result will also be negative: \[ -2 \] ### Final Answer Thus, \((-5) + 3 = -2\). ---
