The sum of a positive integer and a negative integer is positive when the positive integer is greater. For example: 9 + (-5) = 4 In this case, the positive integer 9 is greater than the negative integer 5. Therefore, the sum is positive.
When the positive integer is farther from 0 than the negative integer, example -4+5=1 why? the -4 is 4 places to the left of the 0 and the 5 is 5 places to the right.
No, -3 + 8 = 5.
Let's denote the unknown integer as "x". So now we have two integers, "x" and "4x" because one integer is 4 times the other. So the sum of x+4x= 5x 5x = 5 So x=1
It is the negative of the sum of the two positive equivalents. For example, (-5) + (-8) = -[5 + 8] = -13
