Explain how to subtract a positive integer and a negative integer using absolute value?
Subtracting an integer is the same as adding its opposite.
Examples:
In the following examples, we convert the subtracted integer to its opposite, and add the two integers.
7 - 4 = 7 + (-4) = 3
12 - (-5) = 12 + (5) = 17
-8 - 7 = -8 + (-7) = -15
-22 - (-40) = -22 + (40) = 18
Note that the result of subtracting two integers could be positive or negative.

Can the absolute value of a number be both positive and negative Explain?
Well, honey, the absolute value of a number is always positive, no matter what. It's like a magnet that repels negativity. So, no, it can't be both positive and negative at the same time. It's just not how math works, sweetie.
Why For x less than 0 the absolute value of x equals negative x please explain?
That is how the absolute value is defined. For x < 0 the value of x is negative (by definition). Therefore, the value of negative x is positive (negative of a negative). So abs(x) = -x when x < 0
Explain in your own words how we add numbers with different signs?
Positive plus positive equals positive. Negative plus negative equals negative. Positive greater than negative equals positive. Negative greater than positive equals negative.
How do you explain how a negative times a positive makes a negative?
+*-=-. Example. 3*-3=-9.
When a negative number is subtracted from a positive number a positive a negative number or a zero explain and give an example?
LOVE to HATE = Hate (Negative)LOVE to LOVE = Love (Positive)HATE to HATE = Hate (Negative)HATE to LOVE = Hate (Negative)HATE is a NEGATIVE numberLOVE is a POSITIVE number
What negative numbers are less than positive numbers. Does this mean that the absolute value of a negative number must be less than the absolute value of a positive number Explain?
No it is not true. The absolute value of a number is simply the value of the number with a positive sign.
A teacher wrote two numbers on the board negative 10 and positive 7 On the lines below explain which number has the larger absolute value and why?
Negative 10 because the absolute value of a number is the positive and negative form of that number. For example: The absolute value of 9 is positive 9 and negative 9. Therefore, it would be greater than the absolute value of any number below it.

When a positive and a negative number are added sometimes the sum is positive sometimes it's zero and sometimes it's negative explain why it happens?
If you add a positive number and a negative number, and the positive number is larger (in absolute value) than the negative number, then the sum is positive. For example, 7 + (-5) is the same thing as 7 - 5 which equals 2. Adding a negative number is equivalent to subtracting a positive number. If the two numbers are the same (in absolute value) then the sum is zero. You will be subtracting a number from itself. And finally, if the negative number is larger (in absolute value) than the positive number, then the sum is negative. In other words, you have more negative than positive so you end up with negative. It's pretty simple. An example would be, 3 + (-4) which equals 3 - 4 which is -1.
True or False When you subtract a positive integer from another positive integer the result is always negative Explain?
That would be false. When you subtract two positive numbers, you only go into negatives if the number you are subtracting is greater than the number it's being subtracted from. 3 - 2 = 1 2 - 3 = -1
Explain Why the product of two nonzero absolute values is always a positive number?
The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line, so it is always non-negative. When you multiply two nonzero absolute values, you are essentially multiplying two non-negative numbers together. In multiplication, a positive number multiplied by a positive number always results in a positive number, hence the product of two nonzero absolute values is always positive.
Explain would the formation of a goiter be positive or negative feedback?
Negative.
Explain in your own words how we add numbers with different signs?
Positive plus positive equals positive. Negative plus negative equals negative. Positive greater than negative equals positive. Negative greater than positive equals negative.
Was there a positive or negative impact on society?
prompt:how did the railroads impact society, was it a positive impact or negative ?explain
What does it mean when a number has 2 lines around it?
That it is an absolute value which means that it is literally just the number, neither positive nor negative, but stands for ALL values of that number including the positive and the negative. so for instance if you had |2| it is neither positive nor negative as that, but it stands for a +2 and a -2. Slightly confusing to explain, but... hope it's helpful.
Explain why the absolute value of a number is never a negative number?
Sample Response: The absolute value of a number is the distance the number is from 0 on a number line. Since distance is never negative, absolute value is never negative.
