Answer:

2.-14+6

if you struggle with adding or subtracting negatives and positives you can look at each number by itself. For example// the number 14 is greater than 6 so you know that because 14 is greater than 6 he product of -14 and positive 6 will be negative.

another example//-11+13, disregard the positive and negative and look at the number itself, 13 is greater than 11. Now look at the sign associated with the number, 13 is positive, because the greater number, 13, is positive the product will also be positive
