-2 + -6

Here, you are adding two negative numbers (this is like losing 2 and then losing another 6, so you have a total loss of 8, which is written as -8).

If you are adding two negative numbers, add the two numbers (ignoring the negative signs) and then put a negative sign in from of your answer.

Since 2 + 6 = 8, -2 + -6 = -8.
