Sorry If I'm Wrong
Answer: Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is negative. That is because you are adding three to negative 8.
Think about it. 8 is greater than three, right?
-8 + 3 = -5
You are bringing -8 closer to 0:
-8, -7, -6, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...
Bring -8 three spaces closer to 0. You get -5.
Hope this helps.
