Subtract. \[ \begin{array}{r}2-(-2)=\square \\ -8-(-5)=\square\end{array} \]

For the first expression, \(2 - (-2)\), remember that subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number. So, \(2 - (-2) = 2 + 2 = 4\). For the second expression, \(-8 - (-5)\), apply the same principle. Here, you convert the subtraction of a negative to addition: \(-8 - (-5) = -8 + 5\). This gives us \(-8 + 5 = -3\). Putting it all together, you have: \[ \begin{array}{r}2-(-2)=4 \\ -8-(-5)=-3\end{array} \]
