What are the rules of addition?
If you mean integers, well if you have two integers of the same sign that you are adding, add and the sign stays the same. If you have different signs, subtract and keep the sign of the one that has more. Regular numbers you just add them.
How do you add or subtract integers with a different sign?
Adding two numbers with different signs means subtracting the two absolute integers (without sign) and vice versa.
How do you determine the sign of a quotient two integers?
-- If the two integers have the same sign, their quotient is positive. -- If the two integers have different signs, their quotient is negative.
Why two negatives is a positive?
I feel that two negatives are positive because you add* your two negative integers* together, you would be doing this: -+- (negative + negative) so the response is, is that if two integers where both negative, you would add, just like if there were two positives, you would add, but not if you have different signs. (positive+negative) you would subtract. Just as the same with negative + positive. [REVIEW: if the sign is the same, add, if the sign is different, you subtract.] *=you may not always add *=integers- a fancy word for numbers.
How do you two integers if they have the same sign?
The answer depends on what you wish to DO with them.
How do you add two integers with the same sign?
Add their magnitudes, and keep the same sign for the sum.
What can you say about the of two integers with the same signs?
-- Their sum and difference both have the same sign that the two integers have. -- Their product and quotient are both positive.
When you add two integers how do you know if the answer is positive or negative?
-- If they both start out with the same sign (both negative or both positive), then do this: . . . . . add their two values . . . . . the answer has the same sign as the two original integers. -- If they start out with opposite signs (one negative and one positive), then do this: . . . . . forget about the signs . . . . . find their difference (subtract the smaller number from the larger one) . . . . . give it the sign of whichever original integer was the larger number.
How do you add two integers if the have different signs?
You subtract the smaller from the larger and give the answer the sign of the number with the larger absolute value.
What happens when you multiply two integers with the same sign?
You get a product which is positive.
What is the rule for adding two integers that vary in sign?
Subtract the number with the smaller absolute value from the other. Give the answer the sign of the number with the larger absolute value.
What is the product of two integers with the same sign?
The product of the two numbers is them multiplied together.
