What do you do when subtracting a positive and a negative?
If you subtract a negative from a positive, add both of their absolute values. If you subtract a positive from a negative, add both of their absolute values and multiply by negative one.
Does both positive and negative reinforcement increase the frequency of responses?
Yes, both do. Negative reinforcement is quicker but positive reinforcement is more permanent.
Are both x and y axis of a point in quadrant 1 negative?
no, they are both positive.
Is the product of two integers positive negative or zero How can you tell?
The product of two integers will be: * Zero, if one factor, or both, are zero. * Positive, if both factors have the same sign (both positive, or both negative) * Negative, if the two factors have different signs. Actually, these rules apply to all real numbers, not just to integers.
Is the water molecule slighty negative or slighty positive?
Both. It is slightly negative from one side and slightly positive from the other.
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.
When p is larger than q and both are negative the sign of the x-term of a trinomial will be?
negative
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.
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.
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.
Is the sum of two integers psitive negative or zero how do you know?
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.
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.
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.
When multiplying a fraction by a fraction why do you get a larger fraction?
I think this would happen if both fractions are positive, one or both of them is improper (numerator and denominator are equal or numberator is larger than denominator), and at least one of them has a value greater than one.
How do you compare whole numbers through the million?
A positive number is greater than a negative number. If both numbers are positive, the longer number - the one with more digits - is larger. If both have the same number of digits, compare the digits from the left, one at a time until you find one that is different. The one with the larger digit in this last comparison is the larger number.
If 2 fractions have the same numerator but different denominator how can you tell which is greater?
In that case, and assuming both fractions are positive, the one with the larger denominator is the smaller fraction, because you are dividing by a larger number.
