**Answer: The two possible integers are -5 and 13 or -6 and 14. **

**Step-by-step explanation: **We are given to find two integers with different signs and having sum equal to 8.
Let a and b represents the two integers.
Then, we can see that
a = -5 and b = 13, then we get
a + b = − 5 + 13 = 8.
And, if a = -6 and b = 14, then
a + b = − 6 + 14 = 8.
**Thus, the two possible integers are -5 and 13 or -6 and 14. **

Two possible pairs of integers with different signs that sum to 8 are (13, -5) and (14, -6).
