Question

e an equivalent expression by distributing the \—\ sign outside the parenthe
-(-9.9m - 3)

Explanation:

Step1: Distribute the negative sign

To distribute the negative sign outside the parentheses, we multiply each term inside the parentheses by -1.
For the first term: \(-1\times(-9.9m) = 9.9m\)
For the second term: \(-1\times(-3)=3\)

Step2: Combine the terms

After distributing the negative sign, we combine the resulting terms. So the expression becomes \(9.9m + 3\)

Answer:

\(9.9m + 3\)
