What is a negative number plus a negative number?
a negative number. think banking..... no money plus no money is ? Nothing (negative) "no money" would be zero, wouldn't it? Zero, or "nothing", is not negative. Still, a negative number plus a negative number is a negative number. minus X plus minus Y equals minus(X + Y).
What does 5 to negative 2 power equal?
it equals 1/25, or 0.04. A number to a negative power is the reciprocal of the number to that same positive power. x^(-y) = 1/(x^y)
Explain different ways it is possible to add two rational numbers to get a negative number?
Let x and y be two rational numbers. If both x and y are negative then their sum will be negative.If only one of them, say x, is positive (so that y is negative), and if the absolute value (or magnitude) of y is greater than x then their sum will be negative.
Are rational number is a fraction sometimes always or never?
Rational numbers can always be expressed as fractions.
What is the meaning positive rational numbers?
Any number that can be expressed as the ratio x/y where x and y are both positive integers. [Technically, they could both be negative, but not one of each.]
How can you name a point on a graph?
Compare it's position to the origin. The x coordinate is the number of units to the right of the origin. (If it is to the left of the origin the x coordinate is negative.) The y coordinate is the number of units above the origin. (If it is below, the y coordinate is negative.) The point is denoted (x,y) with the x coordinate in place of the x and the y coordinate in place of the y.
In an ordered pair it does not matter which number is called the x coordinate and which is called the y coordinate?
The first coordinate always is called the "x" coordinate, because it goes on the "x" axis, while the second coordinate is always called the "y" coordinate because it always goes on the "y" axis.
What quadrant is a point that has a negative x coordinate and a negative y coordinate is located in?
The quadrant where a point has a negative x coordinate and a negative y coordinate is located in quadrant 3.
The first number in an ordered pair is always called the y-coordinate and the second number is always called the x-coordinate?
Other way around (X,Y)
The first number in an ordered pair is always called the y coordinate and the second number is always called the x coordinate?
false
Is the line that crosses the y-axis called a y-intercept or a x-intercept?
A line is just a line, but the y-coordinate (the point where the line intersects the y-axis) is termed the y intercept. This point has an x coordinate that is always zero and the y coordinate can be positive, zero, or negative
What is the quadrant of a ordered pair that has a negative x coordinate and a positive y coordinate?
An ordered pair that has a negative x-coordinate and a positive y-coordinate (-,+) would be plotted in which quadrant?
Is the y coordinate of a point in quadrant II is negative?
in 2nd quad y coordinate is positive
In which quadrant are both x and y negative?
The third (or SouthWest) quadrant.
An ordered pair that has a negative x-coordinate and a positive y-coordinate - would be plotted in which quadrant Remember to use Roman Numerals to write the quadrant numbers?
An ordered pair that has a negative x-coordinate and a positive y-coordinate would be plotted in the second quadrant (II). In this quadrant, the x-coordinate is negative and the y-coordinate is positive.
What quadrant is A point having a negative abscissa and negative ordinate?
The negative ordinate represents a negative y coordinate. A negative abscissa implies a negative x coordinate. Therefore the coordinate should look like (-x,-y). These coordinates are located at third quadrant.
What is always graphed on the Y-axis?
Y-coordinate
