Note that Ctrl+Num- will insert an en dash. This is better than a
hyphen for
indicating subtraction, but if you want to be strictly correct, the
minus
sign is glyph 2212. The difference is that the minus sign is
nonbreaking
(the en dash is not). While this won't matter in equations, it could
be very
important in negative numbers near the end of a line.

You can use CTRL + minus sign on numeric keypad.

Alternatively, if you are using Microsoft Equation, you could
simply
press "-" (hyphen) on your keyboard.
