The negative of a negative number is a positive number. The reason for this is that the first negative is a place holder for -1. When you have - - 4, that translates into -1 x -4. When you multiply two negative numbers, you get a positive.For example:- - 7 = -1 x -7 = 7- - r = -1 x -r = r
-4 minus -34 is 30
It is: -4--4 = 0
Seven minus negative two times negative 4 is equal to -1
-15 minus -4 is -11.

-7 minus -4 is -3
-4 minus -34 is 30
Positive 3 plus negative 5 minus negative 2 minus positive 4 is equal to -4.
-9 minus -4 is -5
-4 minus -12 is 8.
It is: -4--4 = 0
-13 minus -4 is -9
Seven minus negative two times negative 4 is equal to -1
-15 minus -4 is -11.
-9 minus -5 is -4
(-4)-(-4)=-4+4=0. In general, anything minus itself is zero.
