Theorem nncand

Description: Cancellation law for subtraction. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 27-May-2016)

Ref Expression
Hypotheses negidd.1 ⊢ φ → A ∈ ℂ
pncand.2 ⊢ φ → B ∈ ℂ
Assertion nncand ⊢ φ → A − A − B = B

Proof

Step Hyp Ref Expression
1 negidd.1 ⊢ φ → A ∈ ℂ
2 pncand.2 ⊢ φ → B ∈ ℂ
3 nncan ⊢ A ∈ ℂ ∧ B ∈ ℂ → A − A − B = B
4 1 2 3 syl2anc ⊢ φ → A − A − B = B
