I need help with an Algebra problem!?

What is:

(3-8) – (-15+19) ?

I think it’s -9, but my mom thinks it’s -1. Are we both wrong? is one of us wrong?

(3 — 8) — ( — 15 + 19)

= ( — 5) — ( 4 )

= — 5 — 4

= — (5 + 4)

= — 9

daughter can correct her mom.

(3-8)-(-15+19)

(-5)-(4)

(-9)you have the right answer your mom might of looked at like this

(3-8)-(-15+19)

(-5)+(4)

that is how she got -1 but you were right and if you aren’t sure next time you just solve it backwards start with answer and work your way back.
