Answer:

-8

Explanation:

-9.5-(-8)-6.5 There are two negatives next to each other, so it's a positive.

-9.5+8-6.5 We want to use the order of operations, so first we can add.

-9.5+8=-1.5 The problem now looks like...

-1.5-6.5 Finally, just subtract.

-8 8 is your answer!!

I hope this helped you...have a wonderful day c:
