Answer:

-34

Explanation:

you would first solve it like a normal equation and ignore the negative;

0.5 * 4 is 2

8 * 4 is 32

32 + 2 = 34

and then you would add the negative sign- because there is only one side with a negative sign, it is negative

if the equation had both sides had a negative, it would be positive
