Problem Overview:
The task involves solving a series of integer addition problems. The problems are categorized into three sections:
MIND,
PUZZLE, and
ORACLE. Each section contains several problems that need to be solved step by step.

2.
2 + (−7) =
- Add the integers: \( 2 + (-7) = 2 - 7 = -5 \)
-
Answer: \( -5 \)
3.
(−5) + (−6) =
- Add the integers: \( -5 + (-6) = -5 - 6 = -11 \)
-
Answer: \( -11 \)
4.
10 + (−9) =
- Add the integers: \( 10 + (-9) = 10 - 9 = 1 \)
-
Answer: \( 1 \)

-
Answer: \( 14 \)
13.
17 + (−1) + (−1) =
- First, add \( 17 + (-1) \): \( 17 - 1 = 16 \)
- Then, add \( 16 + (-1) \): \( 16 - 1 = 15 \)
-
Answer: \( 15 \)
14.
18 + (−5) + (−3) =
- First, add \( 18 + (-5) \): \( 18 - 5 = 13 \)
- Then, add \( 13 + (-3) \): \( 13 - 3 = 10 \)
-
Answer: \( 10 \)
15.
19 + (−12) + (−7) + (−3) =
- First, add \( 19 + (-12) \): \( 19 - 12 = 7 \)
- Then, add \( 7 + (-12) \): \( 7 - 12 = -5 \)
- Next, add \( -5 + (-7) \): \( -5 - 7 = -12 \)
- Finally, add \( -12 + (-3) \): \( -12 - 3 = -15 \)
-
Answer: \( -15 \)
16.
21 + (−9) + 2 + (−7) =
- First, add \( 21 + (-9) \): \( 21 - 9 = 12 \)
- Then, add \( 12 + 2 \): \( 12 + 2 = 14 \)
- Finally, add \( 14 + (-7) \): \( 14 - 7 = 7 \)
-
Answer: \( 7 \)
17.
22 + (−15) + 3 + (−8) =
- First, add \( 22 + (-15) \): \( 22 - 15 = 7 \)
