Why does a positive number minus a negative number equal a positive number?
Because minus a negative number is equivalent to plus a positive number. So, in effect, you have a positive number plus a positive number and that is going to be positive.
How do you generate the Fibonacci sequence?
Generate Fibonacci sequence by adding the two previous integers together to get the next number in the sequence. Starting with the lowest two number on the real number line. 0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144 etc.
The common difference in an arithmetic sequence is a positive number?
could also be negative
What are odd and even?
We generally count with positive integers. This unending sequence of whole numbers starts with 1. Each subsequent number in the sequence is one more than the number before: 1, 2, 3, 4 …. Alternating numbers starting with 1 (1, 3, 5 …) are called odd numbers, while every other number starting with 2 (2, 4, 6 …) is called an even number.
What is the difference between an arithmetic sequence and a geometric sequence?
In an arithmetic sequence the same number (positive or negative) is added to each term to get to the next term.In a geometric sequence the same number (positive or negative) is multiplied into each term to get to the next term.A geometric sequence uses multiplicative and divisive formulas while an arithmetic uses additive and subtractive formulas.
What does descending in algebra mean?
Descending (in a sequence) means that a the next number is "more negative" or "closer to negative infinity" or "less positive" or "further from positive infinity" or if n is a number in a sequence and n+1 is the next number then n/n+1 > 1
Who texts me from 0000622622?
That is not a valid mobile number. There is no country code starting with a sequence of zeros.
When a negative number is parenthesis would it be a positive number?
No. Parentheses have no direct effect on the sign of a number.
What is the name for the number sequence 1 2 3 4 5 6 7?
The positive integers.
marissa subtracted a negative number from a positive number. her result was negative. is that reasonable?
No. When you subtract negative numbers, they have the same effect as if you added a positive number. In this scenario as described, the only result would be a positive number.
Does a positive minus a positive equal a negative?
It depends once again, if the positive number you are subtracting is higher than the positive number that you starting off with, then yes. (Eg. 6 - 8 = -2)
What is the difference between the golden ratio and the Fibonacci sequence?
The fibbonacci sequence is a sequence of numbers starting with one where each number is the sum of the two numbers before it. The sequence goes 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89, and so in. The ratio of any number in the sequence to the number just before it (like 55/34, or 13/8) gets closer and closer to the golden ratio, 1.618033989.
