Why is the sum of two negative numbers always negative?

Because by 'adding' a negative number to another negative number, you are making the first number even smaller - or more negative A negative number means to take away. Think about in terms of money. If I owe you five dollars, then I have negative five dollars (-5). If I borrow ten more, then I owe you additional (+) ten dollars (-10). You would then add them together to figure out how much is owed. Five dollars plus ten dollars is fifteen dollars (-5 + -10 = -15). Or you can think about it this way: two negative numbers added are always negative for the same reasons as when you add positive numbers, their sum is always positive. You get further away from zero, just in opposite directions.</P>


What does 1 dollar tripled every 2 days for 30 days equal?

And here we see that if a mathematical problem can be open to interpretation, it is possible to obtain vastly different results. Both experts agree that something gets tripled every two days, fifteen triplings in total. The first, showing the importance of compounding, posits that the first dollar gets tripled to three dollars after two days and that total gets tripled two days later, and subsequent totals etc. The second thinks that a dollar gets tripled after two days and that process gets repeated. The first solution is more likely the author's original intent, but it's important to state problems unambiguously.
