What if they are both negative?
If what are both negative?
What do you do to get rid of negatives in equations?
You have to multiply both sides (the entire thing) by -1. It's complicated, so save it for when you have a trinomial or less on both sides.
How do you multiply trinomials with binomials in algebra?
A binomial has two terms, while a trinomial has 3 terms. So both terms of the binomial will multiply each term of the trinomial (distribution property). After the multiplication you'll have 6 terms. Look for like terms, if there are, combine them.
How can you tell about two integers when their quotient is positive negative zero?
If both integers are positive or both negative then the quotient is positive. If they are one of each then the quotient is negative.
When p is larger than q and both are positive the sign of the x-term of a trinomial will be?
positive
If the constant term in the factoring of a trinomial is positive then the signs in both binomial factors will be negative?
Not necessarily. They could both be positive.
Given the trinomial where both the first sign is positive and the second sign is negative the signs of the factors will be?
One positive one negative (apex)
When factoring a trinomial how do you know if the two factors will both have plus signs both minus signs and when there will be one of each?
-- If the last term of the trinomial ... the one that's just a number with no 'x' ... is positive, then both factors have the same sign as the middle term of the trinomial. -- If the last term is negative, then the factors have different signs. If this was never pointed out in class, well, it should have been.

How do you add and subtract negative and postitive numbers?
If both numbers are positive, simply add them as you learned in 4th grade. If both numbers are negative,simply add them but add a minus to the answer. If one is positive and the other negative, ignoring the signs,subtract the smaller from the larger and add the sign of the larger to your answer.
Is the sum of two integers psitive negative or zero how do yoknow?
The sum of two numbers depends on their signs and relative magnitudes.Both positive: sum positive Both zero: sum zero Both negative: sum negative Larger magnitude positive, smaller magnitude negative: sum positive Larger magnitude negative, smaller magnitude positive: sum negative Same magnitude, one positive and other negative: sum zero.

Why is the last term of a perfect square trinomial always positive?
This is related to the fact that the square of both a positive and a negative number is always positive. The last term is simply the square of the second term, in the original binomial.
When you add two integers how do you know if the answer is positive or negative?
-- If they both start out with the same sign (both negative or both positive), then do this: . . . . . add their two values . . . . . the answer has the same sign as the two original integers. -- If they start out with opposite signs (one negative and one positive), then do this: . . . . . forget about the signs . . . . . find their difference (subtract the smaller number from the larger one) . . . . . give it the sign of whichever original integer was the larger number.
What number is larger -0.008 or -0.0004?
