Two negative numbers when added would produce another negative number.
For example:
-2 + -2= -4
-7 + -11= -18
-32321 + -8321812= -8289491
However, when you add a negative and positive number together, the number that is greater would determine which +/- sign the answer is and you would subtract it by the lesser number.
ex: -2 + 5 = 3 - notice how the number 5 is greater than -2? You would then subtract 2 from 5. To make things easier, you could also rewrite the equation.
ex#2: 5 -2 =3
The answer will also be negative.
Yes, if you add negative numbers.
You add as normal , pretend as if the signs weren't there,but the answer will be a negative!

If both numbers are positive, simply add them as you learned in 4th grade. If both numbers are negative,simply add them but add a minus to the answer. If one is positive and the other negative, ignoring the signs,subtract the smaller from the larger and add the sign of the larger to your answer.
Adding a negative number to a negative number makes a larger negative. In order to solve this you add the numbers together as a positive then add a negative sign.
if they are both negative, add like they are positive numbers, but just add the negative sign.
no
Yes
Because when you add any negative numbers, the sum will also be a negative number.

There are no two real numbers that do, but the complex numbers (2 + i) and (2 - i) will.If you want two numbers that multiply to negative 5 and add to positive 4 then: -1 and 5If you want two numbers that multiply to negative 5 and add to negative 4 then: 1 and -5
