What is the sum of -6 and 8?

-6
-2
4
14

The correct answer is: 4

The sum of -6 and 8 can be found by adding -6 with 8. This yields a total of 2, which is the correct answer. Option A, -6, is the value of the first number and would not result in a sum of 2. Option B, -2, is the difference between -6 and 8, not the sum. And option D, 14, is the sum of the two numbers when they are added in the incorrect order (8 + (-6) = 14). Therefore, option C is the only option that correctly represents the sum of -6 and 8.
