How is adding to negative integers the same as and different from subtracting two positive integers?
No- adding negative numbers is like adding positive numbesr , except the answer is negative.
When adding 2 negative integers the answer is?
A negative.
Why does adding a negative number to another negative number always gives a negative sum?
The answer is in the question... You are "adding" a negative number to another negative number hence you will get a negative number! Now if you were subtracting a negative number from a negative number, the negatives will cancel out ex:subtracting> -5-(-3)=-2 .........adding>-5+(-3)=-8
Is the answer going to be positive or negative if your adding a negative to a positive?
Not necessarily.
When you add a negative integer with a negative integer do you get a positive integer?
Negative. Sorry. No you do not. Adding a negative to a negative gives you a number that is even more negative. Picture a number line. A negative number is to the left of zero, and adding a negative number moves further left. ■
