How to align numbers in parentheses












2















This code aligns the 4 and the -3 roughly centered, i.e., the 4 is centered above the -3. I would like the 4 and the 3 to be perfectly vertically aligned, with the negative sign out to the left and the left parenthesis accommodating. How can I do this?



 begin{align*}

    x = begin{pmatrix}

            4 \

           -3 \

        end{pmatrix}

 end{align*}

    use array and a r-aligned column (note this is horizontal alignment rather than vertical alignment, vertical alignment refers to aligning to the top or the bottom of a box)

Here are two ways: either use a phantom{-} for the number without a – (to be used for each such number), or load mathtools and use its pmatrix* environment, which allows for an optional alignment specifier:



begin{equation*}

    x = begin{pmatrix*}[r] 

            4 \

           -3 \

        end{pmatrix*}

        qquad

    x = begin{pmatrix}

        phantom{-} 4 \

           -3 \

        end{pmatrix}

 end{equation*}
