  1. When two positive integers are added, we get a positive integer.
  2. When two negative integers are added, we get a negative integer.
  3. The subtraction of an integer is the same as the addition of its additive inverse.
  4. All of the above

hintHint:

When two numbers of the same sign are added, we get the answer in the same sign.

The correct answer is: When two negative integers are added, we get a negative integer.


    The given form is -13 + (-3) = -16. Here, the LHS consists of negative numbers and they are added together. Thus, the result would be a negative integer.
    Hence, we can say that when negative integers are added, we get negative integer as an answer.
    Thus, option b is the correct answer.
