If you integrate from $a$ to $c$ isn't that the same as adding the integrals from $a$ to $b$ and from $b$ to $c$

You're given three integrals:
begin{align}
int_4^{10} f(x) dx &= 8 \
int_4^6 f(x) dx &= 18 \
int_8^{10} f(x) dx &= 3 \
end{align}
The first integral that is asked, asks for the domain $[6, 8]$. Notice that the second and third domain are over the domains $[4, 6]$ and $[8, 10]$. Comparing this with the domain the first integral is over, we see that the first integral covers the domains of the second and third as well. We can write:
$$ int_4^{10} f(x)dx = int_4^6 f(x)dx + int_6^8 f(x)dx + int_8^{10} f(x)dx $$
Filling in the known values:
$$ 8 = 18 + int_6^8 f(x)dx + 3 $$
Solving we find $int_6^8 f(x)dx = -13$. Using a similar method you should be able to solve the second question yourself.

The key is the formula $$int _a^b = int _a^c + int _c ^b$$
You have enough information to find the answer.
You may sketch a graph to help you and do not worry if some integrals have negative values.
