Let the number be x Twice a number means 2x 7 less than twice a number means 2x-7
Any number that is less than 0. Any rational irrational or integral number that is less than 0 is considered negative.
If the number is 'z', then five less than twice the number is ( 2z - 5 ).
When comparing negative numbers or a negative number and a positive number, the word "smaller" is confusing because it is unclear whether you mean that the number is less than another number or that the absolute value of the number is less than the absolute value of another number. You should use the phrase "less than" instead. A number's absolute value is how far it is from zero; for negative numbers think of it as the number without the negative sign. Negative eleven is less than negative three because negative eleven is farther left on the number line, but the absolute value of negative three, which is shown as |-3|, is less than the absolute value of negative eleven because negative three is closer to zero.
nio, it is not; a negative number is always less than a positive number.

A negative number is less than a positive number. Think about it this way: a negative number is less than 0. A positive number is greater than 0. Therefore, a negative number must be less than a positive number.
A negative number is less than zero.
There are an infinite group of negative numbers where if you were to double them and add 3 that they would add up to less than -15. for instance -12*2+3= -21
twice a number can be 2x and six less than it is 2x-6.
A negative number is less than zero.
That's a negative number.
A negative number is less than its absolute value.
Yes because a negative number is always less than a positive number
