Which set of numbers is the positive root of the given number NOT a member?

Negative numbers.


How do you multiply a negative number with a positive fraction?

It is easiest to think about the signs of the numbers separately from their values (as though the numbers were positive):First consider the signs:Multiplying positive by positive => result is positiveMultiplying positive by negative => result is negativeMultiplying negative by positive => result is negativeMultiplying negative by negative => result is positiveOr to summarise:If the numbers are the same sign (both positive or both negative) the result is positive.If the numbers are of opposite signs (one positive, one negative) the result is negative.Then multiply the values of the two numbers together (multiply them as though both were positive) and put the sign on the result as decided above.eg to multiply -24 by 3:negative times positive => result negative (different signs)24 x 3 = 72sign found in step 1 to be negative, so -24 x 3 = -72eg to multiply -15 by -1/3negative times negative => result positive (same signs)15 x 1/3 = 5sign found in step 1 to be positive, so -15 x -1/3 = 5eg to multiply 12 by -1/4positive times negative => result negative (different signs)12 x 1/4 = 3sign found in step 1 to be negative, so 12 x -1/4 = -3.


Why does an equal sign stay the same with multiplying or dividing negative numbers?

when you have > or < and multiply/divide by a negative number the sign inverts because given 2 positive numbers a and b it's easy to see that |a|>|b| if and only if a>b, but given two negative numbers x and y it's also easy to see that |x|>|y| if and only if x<y, try and example: for positive numbers 4 and 5, |5|>|4| and 5>4 but with negatives -5 and -4: |-5|>|-4| and -4>-5. but this affects in no way the = sign because in the equality we don't have a term bigger than the other... it's like "both sides had the same value"


Will the sum of two integers always be negative?

No. For example, 2 + 3 = 5 which is positive, and 2 + (-2) = 0 which is neither positive nor negative. Well, that completely discredits my 4th grade math book that said any number that is not negative IS positive. Therefore, zero is by default a positive number. However, the sum of two negative integers will always be negative. Adding a negative integer decreases the value of the result and given that both integers are negative implies that the sum will be negative. "Implies"? you say. Do you have no conviction? Cannot you say 'determines' when it is obvious? "not obvious"? you say, Then does that mean the sum of 2 negative numbers MIGHT not be negative? See, this is what happens when a 5th grade question is answered by someone with superior attitude.


What is an unlike number?

An unlike number refers to a number that is distinct or different from another number in a given context. This term is often used in mathematical discussions to describe numbers that do not share the same properties, characteristics, or classifications, such as whole numbers versus fractions or positive numbers versus negative numbers. In some contexts, it can also refer to numbers that are not similar in value or form.

2 6 3 8 6 12?

Looking at the differences between the nubmers in the order given gives this list of numbers +4 -3 +5 -2 +6 There are alternative negative an positive numbers. One could say the positive numbers are going up one at a time while the negative numbers are going down one at a time. If that is the case the sequence needs the next negative number which would be -1 so 12 -1 = 11

How does overflow affect the behavior of two's complement numbers, specifically in making them act as negative values?

Overflow in two's complement numbers occurs when the result of an arithmetic operation exceeds the range that can be represented by the given number of bits. This can cause the number to "wrap around" and appear as a negative value. For example, if adding two positive numbers results in a value greater than the maximum positive value that can be represented, the number will overflow and be interpreted as a negative value.
