You're welcome.
No, -9 - 22 is not equal to 13. In order to correctly solve this subtraction problem, you need to subtract 22 from -9. Here's how you can do that:
1. Start with the first number, -9.
2. Take the second number, 22, and change its sign to the opposite. This means changing positive 22 to negative 22.
3. Now, add -9 and -22 together. This can be done by adding the absolute values (ignoring the signs) and then applying the negative sign.
When -9 is added to -22, the result is -31. So, -9 - 22 equals -31, not 13.
