Do two plus signs make a minus?

In addition and subtraction, if the plus sign is larger than the minus sign, then it's a plus. For example: +10 minus -20 = -10 If the plus sign is smaller than the minus sign, the answer will be a minus. For example: -10 minus + 20 = -10 In multiplication, if you have 2 plus signs, the answer will be a plus sign. If you have 2 minus signs, the answer will be a plus sign then, too. But if you have a plus and a minus sign, then the answer will be a minus. For example: +5 x + 2 = +10 -5 x - 2 = +10 -5 x +2 = -10

If you have a product of two numbers and you find the product of the opposites of the numbers you get the same result.?

yes. An opposite number is the negative of a positive number, for example -5 and +5 are opposite numbers. Since minus x plus is minus and plus x minus is minus and plus x plus is plus and minus x minus is plus then the product of opposites is the same.
