Solution

To solve the given arithmetic expression, we need to perform the operations in the order they appear from left to right.

Step 1: Evaluate the First Operation

First, we evaluate the addition of $-4$ and $9$: \[ -4 + 9 = 5 \]

Step 2: Evaluate the Second Operation

Next, we subtract $8$ from the result of the first operation: \[ 5 - 8 = -3 \]
