Answer 1

To solve the expression \(-2 - 3 - (-4)\), we can simplify it step by step:

1. Start with the expression:
   \(-2 - 3 - (-4)\)

2. The double negative \(-(-4)\) becomes \(+4\). So we can rewrite the expression as:
   \(-2 - 3 + 4\)

3. Now, perform the operations from left to right:
   \(-2 - 3 = -5\)
   Then add \(4\):
   \(-5 + 4 = -1\)

Therefore, the solution to the expression \(-2 - 3 - (-4)\) is \(-1\).

The answer is \(-1\).
