@ganeshie8 @iambatman @myininaya @zepdrix @wio can anybody help?

OpenStudy (danjs):

\[(-2z^2-14)-(-12z^2) = (-2z^2 -14+12z^2) = (-2+12)z^2-14\] you can combine terms that have like powers on the variable.

OpenStudy (danjs):

minus a negative is the same as plus 10-(-3) = 10 + 3

I still don't understand it. It's confusing.
