If you can use a calculator that would be easiest but a negative plus a negative equals a negative number -1+-1=-2

Answer:

The sum of any integer and its opposite is equal to zero. Adding two positive integers always yields a positive sum, adding two negative integers always yields a negative sum. To find the sum of a positive and a negative integer, take the absolute value of each integer and then subtract these values.
