Yes, the opposite of an opposite is always the original number you started with. For example, if you take a number like +5, its opposite is -5, and the opposite of -5 is +5, which is the original number. This principle applies to all real numbers, making it a fundamental concept in mathematics.

Is it true that a number is always greater than its opposite .explain?
No, a number is not always greater than its opposite. For any positive number, it is indeed greater than its opposite (negative counterpart), but for zero, the opposite is also zero, making them equal. For negative numbers, the opposite is a positive number, which is greater than the negative number. Thus, the relationship depends on the sign of the number.
When a negative number is subtracted from a positive number is the difference always positive?
Yes, a negative number subtracted from a positive number will always be positive. Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding the opposite of the negative number. The opposite of a negative number is always positive. A positive number plus a positive number is always positive.
How do Absolute value of a number and it's opposite compare?
The absolute value of a number is always positive or zero, while its opposite is always negative or zero. The relationship between the absolute value of a number and its opposite is that they have the same numerical value but opposite signs. For example, the absolute value of -5 is 5, and the opposite of 5 is -5.
What is the counterexamples of the opposite of any number is always positive?
The [multiplicative] opposite of -2 is -0.5, which is negative.
What number do the visa card start with?
They always start with a 4. Mastercard always starts with a 5.
What number is equal to a opposite?
the number 0 is always equal to its opposite
What is the opposite of negative 14?
For any number A, the opposite of A is -A. In this case we have -A to start with.The opposite of -A is -(-A). The product of two negatives is always a positive so -(-A)=A.Using this model, the opposite of 14 is -14. Furthermore, the opposite of -14 is 14.We use this concept when we solve equations. We can add the opposite of a number to both sides.
What number is opposite the number five on dice?
Opposite faces always add to 7. Two is opposite five.
Is the opposite of a number always less than the number?
No, the opposite of -6 would be 6, which is larger.
Is the opposite of a negative number always sometimes or never a negative number?
never a negative number * * * * * ... true if, by opposite, you mean the additive inverse. However, the multplicative inverse is also an opposite. And the multiplicative inverse of a negative number is always negative.
When a negative number is subtracted from a positive number is the difference always positive?
Yes, a negative number subtracted from a positive number will always be positive. Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding the opposite of the negative number. The opposite of a negative number is always positive. A positive number plus a positive number is always positive.
Why absolute value of a number is positive?
Absolute value is always the opposite of the number.
How do Absolute value of a number and it's opposite compare?
The absolute value of a number is always positive or zero, while its opposite is always negative or zero. The relationship between the absolute value of a number and its opposite is that they have the same numerical value but opposite signs. For example, the absolute value of -5 is 5, and the opposite of 5 is -5.
What is the counterexamples of the opposite of any number is always positive?
The [multiplicative] opposite of -2 is -0.5, which is negative.
Will the opposite of a positive number always sometimes or never be positive number?
Opposite of positive number will always be a negative number. The total of the two has to be zero as per the definition. So the zero does not have the opposite number.
True or false the opposite of a number is less than the number?
False. Apart from the fact that there is no such thing as an opposite. If, by opposite, you mean negative (additive inverse), then start with a negative number. The negative of this will be positive, and so greater. If by opposite you mean the reciprocal (multiplicative inverse), start with a positive number less than one or a negative number less than -1.
Will the opposite of a number always sometimes or never be a positive number?
The opposite of a number depends on what the relevant operation is. For addition or multiplication - the two common operators - the answer to the question depends on what the first number is.
