This problem involves the addition of integers. When we add up a positive number and a negative number, it results in subtraction. The final answer will have a sign the same as the higher number.

In this problem, the negative number has a higher value than the positive number, hence, the final answer is a negative number. Doing the operation, we get


1+(-2)=-1

Answer: -1
