What is a subtraction expression that involves two positive integers and has a negative answer?
6 - 8 = -2 is one possible answer.
Is the difference of two positives a positive?
The difference between two numbers is the result of a subtraction. This can be either positive or negative.
Is the difference of two positive numbers positive?
The difference between two numbers is the result of a subtraction. This can be either positive or negative, depending on which number is greater.
In x - 3 does absolute value change the subtraction into addition?
no, the absolute value does not change the subtraction into addition. it does however, change the difference to positive ( if the difference is negative)
What is the difference between a subtraction sign and a negative sign?
The primary difference is that subtraction is an operation that is performed as part of an expression. For example.... 2X - 4 Whereas a negative sign is not an operation but associated with an individual term in the expression..... 2X + (-4) In the first example you are subtracting two positive "things" from each other. In the second example you are adding a positive "thing" and a negative "thing" together. You will notice that if you were to substitute a number in for X in either of these expressions, or graph them as linear equations, you would obtain the same results for both.
What is a subtraction expression that involves two negative integers and has a positive answer?
There are infinitely many possible answers. For example, (-3) - (-5) = 2.
What subtraction expression involves two positive integers and has a negative answer?
There are infinitely many possible answers. For example, (3) - (5) = -2.
Why when subtracting a negative number must you change the subtraction sign to an addition sign?
Because a negative negative is the same a a positive, and because of the definition of subtraction and addition.
Does a positive and negative equal a positive?
Mathematically it can vary if addition/subtraction. If it's multiplication/division, then it's always negative.
Positive and negative what is the final result?
It depends on the operation and values of the positive and negative. For example, in multiplication or division a positive and negative will be a negative. In addition or subtraction, it depends on the absolute value of the original numbers.
What happens when you take a negative from a positive?
It's called subtraction
Is the difference of two positive numbers positive or negative?
If you are asking how many numbers difference is there between two numbers, then it will be positive. If you are referring to subtraction, if the number you are subtracting from is the larger number, it will be positive. If it is smaller it will be negative. 3 - 2 = 1 (3, the number being subtracted from, is larger, so the answer is positive) 2 - 3 = -1 (2, the number being subtracted from, is smaller, so the answer is negative)
Negative minus a ngative equals what?
It equals a negative plus a positive. Unlike multiplication, subtraction and addition with negatives doesn't have a set negative or positive outcome.
Subtraction of vectors?
In subtraction of vectors, simply add a negative vector. A negative vector is the same vector as its positive counterpart, only it is pointing in the opposite direction.
How do you get a negative integer with a positive integer and a negative integer?
As long as the negative integer is greater than the positive integer, a negative integer will result from addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Does a negative number plus a negative number equal a negative?
Yes it does. Because the it acts like subtraction, but since the positive, negative number scales run backwards like a mirror, subtraction is addition with two negative numbers.
Is the difference of a negative integer and negative integer always a positive?
No, because if the positive was 8, and the negative was -4, the difference would be positive four.
Is the difference of a positive integer and a negative integer always negative?
No, because if the positive was 8, and the negative was -4, the difference would be positive four.
Is the difference of a positive integer and negative integer always a positive?
No, a positive minus a negative can be either or positive or a negative.
When you are subtracting a positive integer from a negative integer Will the difference be positive or negative?
positive

How is the additions of integers related to the subtraction of integers?
they both have something to do with positive and negative
If you subtract a positive from a negative what do you get?
A negative, since subtracting a positive is equivalent to moving left done the number line. Since we start left of 0 on the number line, it is only possible to end left of it after subtraction, resulting in a negative. Since the subtraction is the opposite of addition, to subtract a positive really means that you are adding a negative. So you are adding two negatives which gives you a negative sum.
If the coefficient of the expression axn is negative and the exponent is positive will the expression be a polynomial?
true
Why does the expression -a does not always represent a negative number?
* If "a" is positive, "-a" is negative.* If "a" is negative, "-a" is positive. * If "a" is zero, "-a" is zero. If you want to force a negative number, you can write -|a|, i.e., the negative of the absolute value.
