Answer 2

–5.6 + 8.2

The answer is 2.6 because with a - and + you subtract the two number and whichever is the highest number that is the sign that you put. In this case, the highest number is a +8.2 so your answer will be POSITIVE.

If the highest number was a negative for example, 5.6+ -8.2 then your answer will be -2.6
