Problem 1: $-2 + (-9)$
Step 1: Add two negative numbers
When adding two negative numbers, we add their absolute values and keep the negative sign. So, $|-2| = 2$ and $|-9| = 9$. Then $2 + 9 = 11$. Since both numbers are negative, the result is $-11$.
$ -2 + (-9) = - (2 + 9) = -11 $
Step 1: Subtract a negative number
Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding its positive counterpart. So, $4 - (-8) = 4 + 8$.
$4 + 8 = 12$
Step 1: Divide a negative by a positive
When dividing a negative number by a positive number, the result is negative. We divide the absolute values: $|-9| \div |3| = 9 \div 3 = 3$. So the result is $-3$.
$ -9 \div 3 = - (9 \div 3) = -3 $
