You didn't say what the numbers were but if the negative number was of greater value (for example -2 + 1) than your answer would be negative. But if the positive number had greater value (2 + -1) than your answer would be positive.
no
Well, a positive number minus a greater positive number equals a negative number. But it's impossible for a negative number to be subtracted from any number.
no , because the negative integer is not a whole number. A whole number is greater than a negative ! (:
you would know because it is the postive that is the highest number. not the negative
Positive numbers are greater than negative numbers. Decimals can be either positive or negative.
a positive number is always greater than a negative number
If a positive and negative number are added together, and the positive number has a greater value, the sum will be positive.
A negative number is less than a positive number. Think about it this way: a negative number is less than 0. A positive number is greater than 0. Therefore, a negative number must be less than a positive number.
In math, a positive is a number greater then zero, and a negative number is less than zero.
A positive rational number.
If you multiply two numbers, the result will be positive, if both factors are positive, or if both are negative. Multiplying a positive number by a negative number, or a negative number by a positive number, results in a negative result.For addition, if you add two positive numbers, the result is positive. If you add two negative numbers, the result is negative. If you add a positive and a negative number, the result depends on which of the numbers has the greater absolute value. For example, if the positive number has the greater absolute value (distance from zero), the result will be positive.If you multiply two numbers, the result will be positive, if both factors are positive, or if both are negative.

Not necessarily. If the quantity of the negative number is more than the positive number, then the answer will be both numbers' difference with the sign of the negative number since it is greater. If the positive number is greater, then the operations are vice versa ( backwards)
Not necessarily; a positive number plus a negative number will be a positive number if the positive number is greater. Example: 10 + (-6) = 4
In math, a positive is a number greater then zero, and a negative number is less than zero.
