When you add a positive number and a negative number how do you determine the sign of the answer?
To determine the sign of the sum when adding a positive number and a negative number, compare their absolute values. If the positive number has a greater absolute value, the result will be positive; if the negative number has a greater absolute value, the result will be negative. If the absolute values are equal, the result will be zero.
Can a negative number be greater than a positive number?
No. All positive numbers are greater than zero and all negative numbers are less than zero. Therefore, all positive numbers are greater than all negative numbers. That said, there is a such thing as absolute value, which is how far a number is from zero. For example the absolute value of -10 is 10. The absolute value of a negative number can be greater than that of a positive number.
What absolute number is greater than 14?
Any number that is greater than 14 or less than -14 will have an absolute value greater than 14. Mathematically expressed as if |n| > 14 then n > 14 or n < -14.
What are the two rules for adding integers?
If the signs are the same, add the absolute values and keep the sign. If the signs are different, subtract the lesser absolute value from the greater absolute value and keep the sign of the number with the greater absolute value.
Which number has the greater absolute value 1 or -2?
3
What does decreasing the absolute value of a to a number less than 1 cause the parabola to do?
become wider
How do you know if a parabola is skinny or fat?
If the number in front of x squared is a number greater than 1, the parabola will start becoming thinner. The opposite occurs when the number is a fraction.
Which has greater absolute value -15 or -14?
-1
Why is it useful for me to know the absolute value of a number?
The absolute value of a number is the distance to zero. When adding which ever number has the greater absolute value will determine the sign of the answer.
Which is greater -8 -6?
-2
When you add a positive number and a negative number how do you determine the sign of the answer?
To determine the sign of the sum when adding a positive number and a negative number, compare their absolute values. If the positive number has a greater absolute value, the result will be positive; if the negative number has a greater absolute value, the result will be negative. If the absolute values are equal, the result will be zero.
When you multiply a fraction by a number greater than one how does the product compare to the fraction?
The absolute value of the answer will be greater than the absolute value of the original.
When you add a negative number to a postivie number it equals?
If the absolute value of a negative number is greater than the absolute value of a positive number, then on addition we will get a negative number. e.g. -4 + 1 = -3 If absolute value of positive number is greater, then the result is positive. e.g. 5 + (-4) = 1
What is a negative integer greater than the absolute value of 3?
The absolute value of 3 is +3. No negative number can have a value greater than +3.
Can a negative number be greater than a positive number?
No. All positive numbers are greater than zero and all negative numbers are less than zero. Therefore, all positive numbers are greater than all negative numbers. That said, there is a such thing as absolute value, which is how far a number is from zero. For example the absolute value of -10 is 10. The absolute value of a negative number can be greater than that of a positive number.
Which is greater -1/2 or 1/2?
1
What absolute number is greater than 14?
Any number that is greater than 14 or less than -14 will have an absolute value greater than 14. Mathematically expressed as if |n| > 14 then n > 14 or n < -14.
