Answer:

-2 and suki was right aDriene was wrong as he added

Step-by-step explanation:

Suki was right because Adrienne's Work was added. If you don't get what I'm saying I will explain. So if you have two negative numbers that need subtracted then the answers go up. Because if you look between positive numbers and negative numbers, the positive number always goes up when you add, but when you subtract you get less numbers. But if you have have negative numbers you have to subtract then they get less then, and when you add they get greater than.

So anyways Suki is correct because she is adding. And aDriene is incorrect because she added.
