$– 8 – (– 10) = – 8 + 10$ as additive inverse of $–10$ is $10.$
On the number line, from $– 8$ we will move 10 steps towards right,
And we reach at $2.$ Thus, $–8 – (–10) = 2$
Hence, to subtract an integer from another integer it is equivalent to adding the additive inverse of the integer that is being subtracted, to the other integer.
