Answer 2

Answer:

8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite of -8 is 8.

\frac{1}{2}+8

Convert 8 to fraction \frac{16}{2}.

\frac{1}{2}+\frac{16}{2}

Since \frac{1}{2} and \frac{16}{2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

\frac{1+16}{2}

Add 1 and 16 to get 17.

\frac{17}{2}
