A product of two integers is those two numbers multiplied together. If the product is two integers, it is called a square. Two negative integers are multiplied together by multiplying them together just as if they are positive. For example, -3x-3=9. It is exactly the same thing as squaring a positive integer.
The smallest positive integer is 1. 1 is the multiplicative identity; ie anything times 1 is itself. The greatest negative integer is the most positive negative integer which is -1. Therefore the product of the greatest negative integer and the smallest positive integer is the greatest negative integer which is -1.
No - the absolute value of any integer is either the integer itself or its positive equivalent, if negative.
There are just three possible cases: Positive integer: positive x positive = positive. Negative integer: negative x negative = positive. Zero: zero x zero = zero.
a negative integer
No. There is no integer that, when multiplied by itself, produces the answer -36.
The sum of any one number is itself.
Negative numbers are integers as well. The absolute value of any negative integer will be positive and therefore larger than itself.
Yes. The product of a negative integer and a positive integer is a negative integer.
No, an integer and its absolute value are not always opposites. The absolute value of an integer is always non-negative, while the integer itself can be negative, zero, or positive. For example, the integer -5 has an absolute value of 5, which are opposites, but the integer 0 has an absolute value of 0, making them the same. Thus, they are only opposites when the integer is negative.
If the number is 0 or positive, then its absolute value is itself. If the integer is negative, then its absolute value will be its negative (which will be positive).To illustrate the second case, Abs(-3) = -(-3) = +3.
A negative integer multiplied by a negative integer is always a positive integer product. -x * -y = xy
Yes, and also a negative integer divided by a negative integer is equal to a positive number (but not necessarily an integer).
