Answer:

(-2)+(-5) = -7

Explanation:

-2 + -5 = -7

but negative PLUS a negative equals a negative so the answer is going to be a negative, and just to keep in mind in the future that a negative PLUS a negative will give us a negative and negative TIMES a negative gives us a positive, and a positive PLUS a positive gives us a positive and a positive TIMES a positive gives us a positive and Negative times a positive equals a negative and negative PLUS a positive find the sum take the absolute value of each integer and then subtract the values.

The answer is -7 hope this helped! :)
