Write an equivalent expression by distributing the "minus−" sign outside the parentheses:

Question

minus, left parenthesis, minus, 6, point, 5, g, plus, 3, right parenthesis
−(−6.5g+3)

Answer 1

To distribute the negative sign outside the parentheses for the expression \(-(-6.5g + 3)\), you apply the distributive property. This means you multiply each term inside the parentheses by \(-1\):

\[ -(-6.5g) + -3 \]

This simplifies to:

\[ 6.5g - 3 \]

So, the equivalent expression is:

\[ 6.5g - 3 \]
