Answer: 13
Step-by-step explanation: In this problem we're asked to rewrite as addition and then evaluate.
It's important to understand that minus a negative means the same thing as plus a positive so we can change 5 - (-8) to 5 + (+8).
Now we can simply add to get a sum of 13.
Therefore, 5 - (-8) or 5 + (+8) = 13

Answer: 13
Step-by-step explanation: We originally have the equation 5 - (-8).
Flip everything around.
5 + (+8)
5 + (+8) = 13.
When it gives the keywords "rewrite as addition" you should know that you need the rewrite the equation an opposite way of what it was written.
In this case it was 5 - (-8).
Flip the signs, 5 + (+8).
Add 5 to 8 and get 13.
