Rule for subtracting Integers: Keep, Change, Opposite. Show the changes for subtracting integers:

1. 3 - 7
2. -4 -2
3. -4 - (-6)
4. x - 3x
5. 3 - 4x
6. -3 - (-2x)

 -4 -6 2 -2x 3-4x 2x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

3 - 7= -4 (7 is larger so we get - sign)

-4-2=-6(we add "-" terms but they have the - sign)

-4-(-6)=-4+6=2(- multiplied by - =+ meaning - - = +)

x-3x=-2x(3x is larger)

3-4x=3-4x(Unlike Terms)

-3 - (-2x)=-3+2x=2x-3(Unlike terms, so we only simplify the signs)

-4
