perpendiculars("Opposite" is a pretty arbitrary condition in math. The slopes are negative reciprocals.)and by negative that person means the opposite of what it is already, negative or positive, it's not always negative
A negative number. (ex. -9)
positive number because on a scale of zero, the negatives are going to the left side and the opposite side has the same number but opposite, in this case, negative 4 is the opposite of 4
Negative two
The additive opposite is +1/2. The multiplicative opposite is -2.
Negative in English terms means "opposite." Multiplication can represent "of". So, negative times negative is the "opposite of the opposite." And the opposite of an opposite is the same, hence positive, because "same" is the opposite of "opposite" and positive is the opposite of negative. So if you put it into English words, it actually makes some sense. In essence, negative and negative "cancel out."
The opposite is: negative (the absolute value of negative 30).
opposite of mean "negative" so the opposite of x is negative x or -x.
It is the sign that is opposite, not the number But if the number magnitude is the same, it is correct to say that ,for example, negative 6 is the opposite of positive six. But negative 4 is not the opposite of negative 8, for example
The question is somewhat ambiguous since you do not define "opposite". If what you are asking is: is the negative of a negative sometimes negative, the answer is: No, never.
if a is bad, then negative bad or not bad is good.-a means the opposite of a. Since a is negative and the opposite of a negative is positive, -a is positive.
The opposite of the opposite is the original value, -9.
No. The product of two opposite numbers is always negative. Negative x positive = negative and Positive x negative = negative
The opposite polarity or charge is negative. The opposite of a numeral or balance is also negative, or deficient. The opposite of (being) positive would be unsure or uncertain.

Inexact. The opposite of an opposite is a double negative, which is the term itself.
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.
