Question
Use the number line and add the following integers:
8 + (-8)
8 + (-8)
✓
Answer
On the number line, we start from 0 and move 8 steps to the right to reach point A. Now, starting from A, we move 8 steps to the left to reach point B.B represents the integer 0
Therefore, 8 + (-8) = 0
Therefore, 8 + (-8) = 0
