if a is bad, then negative bad or not bad is good.
-a means the opposite of a. Since a is negative and the opposite of a negative is positive, -a is positive.
a negative number plus a negative number is negative. here is a proof.(-x)+(-x)(-1)x+(-1)x-1(x+x)-1(2x)-2xa negative number times a negative number is positive though.
Positive + Negative = Negative Negative + Negative = Positive Positive + Positive = Positive Negative + Positive = Negative
Negative * positive = negative Positive * positive = positive Negative * negative = positive
The rules for the sign (positive or negative) of the result of a multiplication is the same as division. For multiplication: Positive * Positive --> Positive Positive * Negative --> Negative Negative * Positive --> Negative Negative * Negative --> Positive For division: Positive / Positive --> Positive Positive / Negative --> Negative Negative / Positive --> Negative Negative / Negative --> Positive
Yes. Negative/negative = positive Postive/Positive = positive Negative/Positive - negative
Negative * positive = negative Positive * positive = positive Negative * negative = positive
A negative divided by a positive is negative. A negative divided by a negative is positive. A positive divided by a positive is positive. A positive divided by a negative is negative.
Negatives and Positives Positive + Positive = Positive Negative + Negative = Positive Negative + Positive = Negative Positive + Negative = Negative
a negative x a negative= a positive, a positive x a positive= a positive, a negative x a positive= a negative, and a positive x a negative= a negative. Same thing with division. a negative divided by a negative= a positive, a positive divided by a positive= a positive, a negative divided by a positive= a negative, and a positive divided by a negative is a negative. U see?
positive and a positive is a positive negative and a negative is a positive to answer your question: positive and a negative is a negative.
The smallest positive prime is 2, but there is no smallest negative prime.One way to show this is to demonstrate that the cardinality of the set of negative primes is countably infinite (the proof will be similar to that for positive primes. Hint: use proof by contradiction. Assume a finite set of negative primes and derive a contradiction).Let me know if you'd like me to write up a formal proof that there is no smallest negative prime. I'll be happy to dig it out of one of my old homework sets! :)
negative*negative=positive negative/positive=negative negative\negative=positve negative-positive=change the sign to a plus and then change the number after the sign and get your answer negative +positive=which ever numbr is bigger minus positive+positive=positive
