Or wait, is it just simply adding -8 + -14 ?

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

yes, it is...

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

if you look at a number line, adding a positive number moves you to the right on the number line, and adding a negative number (or subtracting a positive number, which is equivalent) moves you to the left. if you start at -8, and add -14, where do you end up?
