The sum of two negative integers is a positive integer?
No, the sum of two negative integers is not a positive integer. For example, if you add -5 and -6 together the sum would be -11.
Is it true that the sum of a negative integer and a positive integer is always positive?
It depends, if a number with positive integers is greater than the number with the negative integer therefore the sum will be in positive integer. And if the number with positive integer is less than the number with the number with negative integer then the sum will be in negative integer.
Is the sum of 2 positive integers a negative integer?
No. Never.
Are the sum of two negative integers positive?
No. Two negative integers added together will never equal a positive integer. It is the product of two negative integers that is positive.
Is the sum of two integers positive negative or zero?
The sum of two positive integers is positive. The sum of two negative integers is negative. The sum of one positive integer and one negative integer has the same sign as the addend with the greater absolute value. If the absolute values of the two addends are equal, the sum is zero.
The sum of a positive integer?
sum of positive integers will be a positive integer
What stament is always trueabout the sum of a negtive integer and positive integer?
The statement is: "Their sum is always an integer." Whether the sum is negative or positive depends on the two original integers.
Is the sum of a positive integer and a negative integer is always zero?
Only when the integers are the same but otherwise no.
Is the sum of two opposite integers always positive?
Yes, the sum of two negative integers is always negative.
What is the sum of the first ten negative integer and the first ten positive integer?
The sum of the first ten positive integers, i.e. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, and 10, is 55. The sum of the first ten negative integers, i.e. -1,-2,-3,-4,-5,-6,-7,-8,-9, and -10 is -55. The sum of the first ten positive integers plus the sum of the first ten negative integers is 0.
What is rule of addition of integers?
Rule: The sum of two negative integers is a negative integer.Rule: The sum of two positive integers is a positive integer.Procedure: To add a positive and a negative integer (or a negative and a positive integer), follow these steps:1. Find the absolute value of each integer.2. Subtract the smaller number from the larger number you get in Step 1.3. The result from Step 2 takes the sign of the integer with the greater absolute value.
How can you predict the sign of the sum of a positive and a negative integer before you add the numbers?
If the absolute value of the positive integer is greater than the absolute value of the negative integer, then the sum of the two will be positive.If the absolute value of the positive integer is less than the absolute value of the negative integer, then the sum will be negative.If the absolute values of the two integers are the same then the sum will be zero, which has neither a negative nor a positive sign.
