positive 8 - positive 5 = 8 plus negative 5 8 - 5 = 8 + (-5)
-7 + 15 - 8 = 0
positive 3
-8 + 8 = 0
Negative 4
Well, isn't that a happy little math problem we have here? When you add a negative number like -8 to a positive number like 15, you can think of it as moving in different directions on a number line. So, when you add them together, you get 7. Just like adding a touch of bright color to a painting, adding these numbers together brings a positive result.
-8 + 16 = 8
negative read this : "MULTIPLICATION: minus times minus is plus (negative x negative = positive).....minus times plus is minus (negative x positive = negative).....plus times plus is plus (positive x positive = positive) DIVISION: minus divi minus is plus (negative ÷ negative = positive)......minus divi plus is minus (negative ÷ positive = negative).....plus divi plus is plus (positive ÷ positive = positive)"
The quotient of a positive integer by a negative is always negative. Say this to yourself a couple times: "MULTIPLICATION: minus times minus is plus (negative x negative = positive).....minus times plus is minus (negative x positive = negative).....plus times plus is plus (positive x positive = positive) DIVISION: minus divi minus is plus (negative ÷ negative = positive)......minus divi plus is minus (negative ÷ positive = negative).....plus divi plus is plus (positive ÷ positive = positive)"
Minus a negative means you can plus a positive so therefore the answer would be positive 8.
a negative times a positive is a negative so 2*-4=-8+10=2
yes
