What can we Say that $(f-g)^{+}$? $(f-g)^{+}=(f^{+}+(-g)^{+})=f^{+}-g^{-}$?

          The positive and the negative part of a function are non negative function. In general it is not true that $ (-g)^+ = - g^-$. It is true if and only if $g=0$.



          But we know (see for instance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_and_negative_parts) that for every function
          $$ f^+ = frac{ | f | +f }{2} quad f^- = frac{ | f | -f }{2}.$$
          Thus
          $$(f-g)^+ = frac{|f-g| + f-g }{2} leq frac{|f| + |g| + f-g }{2} = frac{|f| + f}{2} + frac{|g| -g }{2} = f^+ + (-g)^+.$$
