Rules for Adding Integers:


1. Same Signs: Add the absolute values and keep the common sign.
2. Different Signs: Subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger one, and the result takes the sign of the number with the larger absolute value.

Now let's go through each problem:

---

1) 5 + (-17)
→ Different signs: |5| = 5, |-17| = 17 → 17 - 5 = 12
→ Since -17 has a larger absolute value, the result is negative.
-12

---

2) 3 + (-7)
→ Different signs: |3| = 3, |-7| = 7 → 7 - 3 = 4
→ -7 has larger absolute value → negative
-4

---

3) -8 + (-7)
→ Same signs (both negative): add absolute values → 8 + 7 = 15
→ Keep negative sign
-15

---

4) -4 + 10
→ Different signs: |-4| = 4, |10| = 10 → 10 - 4 = 6
→ 10 is positive and larger → positive result
6

---

5) 6 + (-12)
→ Different signs: |6| = 6, |-12| = 12 → 12 - 6 = 6
→ -12 has larger absolute value → negative
-6

---

6) -3 + 1
→ Different signs: |-3| = 3, |1| = 1 → 3 - 1 = 2
→ -3 has larger absolute value → negative
-2

---

7) 5 + (-16)
→ Different signs: |5| = 5, |-16| = 16 → 16 - 5 = 11
→ -16 is larger → negative
-11

---

8) 0 + (-7)
→ Any number plus zero is itself
-7

---

9) -10 + 4
→ Different signs: |-10| = 10, |4| = 4 → 10 - 4 = 6
→ -10 is larger → negative
-6

---

10) -6 + (-13)
→ Same signs (both negative): 6 + 13 = 19 → negative
-19

---

11) 4 + (-5)
→ Different signs: |4| = 4, |-5| = 5 → 5 - 4 = 1
→ -5 is larger → negative
-1

---

12) -4 + (-15)
→ Both negative: 4 + 15 = 19 → negative
-19

---

13) -9 + 4
→ Different signs: |-9| = 9, |4| = 4 → 9 - 4 = 5
→ -9 is larger → negative
-5

---

14) -19 + 4
→ Different signs: |-19| = 19, |4| = 4 → 19 - 4 = 15
→ -19 is larger → negative
-15

---

15) -2 + (-12)
→ Both negative: 2 + 12 = 14 → negative
-14

---

16) 18 + (-3)
→ Different signs: |18| = 18, |-3| = 3 → 18 - 3 = 15
→ 18 is positive and larger → positive
15

---

17) -8 + (-14)
→ Both negative: 8 + 14 = 22 → negative
-22

---

18) -4 + (-2)
→ Both negative: 4 + 2 = 6 → negative
-6

---

19) -7 + (-12)
→ Both negative: 7 + 12 = 19 → negative
-19

---

20) -13 + (-2)
→ Both negative: 13 + 2 = 15 → negative
-15

---
