Oh, dude, like, totally. So, 6 is greater than negative 8. It's like, basic math, you know? Negative numbers are like the Debbie Downers of the number world, always bringing the mood down. So yeah, 6 is definitely strutting its stuff above negative 8.
less, if it is a fraction of a half, it cannt be a whole
If the positive number is greater than the negative, it's a positive. Ex: 8 + (-3) = 5 If the negative is greater though, then the answer is a negative. Ex: 3 + (-5) = -2
2 of course. Because 2 is positive and -5 is negative and positive numbers are always greater than negative numbers.
The answer will take on the sign of whichever numeral is greater, regardless of sign. 5 + -3 = 2 5 is greater than 3, the answer is positive. 5 + -7 = -2 7 is greater than 5, the answer is negative.
No. Negative 24 is greater than Negative 42.
No. Negative 15 is greater than negative 33.
x < 2 or x > 8.
You didn't say what the numbers were but if the negative number was of greater value (for example -2 + 1) than your answer would be negative. But if the positive number had greater value (2 + -1) than your answer would be positive.
