• add 8 to both sides

• subtract 3 from both sides

7+ -9= -2

• this is correct because the signs are different the answer is negative

• this is correct because when the signs are different you subtract and take the sign of the larger number

• this is not correct you should take the sign of the smaller number. the answer should be 2

• no solution
