-2
======================
-2 if you add them.
+8 if you subtract them
-15 if you multiply them
-0.6 if you divide them
"... and ..." is pretty ambiguous as a mathematical operator.
5 + (-3) + (-5) = -3
Positive 3 plus negative 5 minus negative 2 minus positive 4 is equal to -4.
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
It can be positive, negative, or zero, depending what numbers you add. for example, -5 + 3=-2 but -3 +5=+2
Negative. Adding a negative is the same as subtracting a positive. -2 + -3= -2 - 3= -5, not 1
-3 - (-2) = -3 + (+2) = -3 + 2 = -1
Not necessarily. Examples: -1 - (-5) = -1 + 5 = 4, which is positive, but -10 - (-3) = -10 + 3 = -7, a negative. So it depends on the numbers used.
-10 x -5 = +50A negative times a negative will always equal a positive number.A negative times a positive will always equal a negative number.A positive times a positive will always equal a positive number.- x - = +- x + = -+ x + = +
A negative times a negative is a positive (-4)(-5) = positive 20
It depends. It could equal either a negative number or a positive number, depending whether the negative number or the positive number is larger in absolute value. For example, -5 + 3 = -2, but -5 + 12 = +7.
Not necessarily. 5 + (-6) = -1, a negative 5 + (-5) = 0 or 5 + (-4) = 1, a positive.
well it depends if the negative is bigger than the positive or viseversa. lets say you have -5+7 it would equal 2. if it was -7+5 it would equal -2. In short, a positive number plus a negative number is the same thing as a positive number minus another positive number. Example: 3 + (-2) = 1 3 - 2 = 1
