One third less than zero.
The separater to make the negative and positive numbers opposites?
This is NOT a proof, just an explanation. Imagine you are on a number line and you are walking. Multiplying x*y is taking x steps, each of size y. Negative steps are interpreted by requriring you to face the negative end of the line before you start walking and negative step sizes are backward where backward is heel first. This mean to find, -x*-y you stand on zero, face in the negative direction, and then take x backward steps, each of size y.
If a line has a negative slope it is going 'down hill' and if it has a positive slope it is going 'up hill'
Yes, it does.
It means that the number is negative. Negative numbers are always under 0.
the number is negative.
yesrer324: it depends what way you mean. look at it like this.taking away a negative number from a negative number means you would go up the number number line just as positive numbers go up the number line.

your pregnant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it means negative ....in the medical field
Yes, it can.
The two lines before and after a negative number represent absolute value, denoted as |x|. This notation indicates the distance of the number from zero on the number line, regardless of direction, making it always a non-negative value. For example, |−3| equals 3, showing that the absolute value removes the sign and reflects the magnitude of the 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.
