Is the sum of two negative numbers positive or negative?
The sum of two negative numbers is going to sum up to a negative number EX:-2+-5=-7
Why is the sum of a positive integer and a negative integer is always negative?
It isn't always negative. ... for example: -5 + 12 = 7 (a positive number) -5 + 2 = -3 (a negative number) -5 + 5 = 0 (neither negative nor positive) If the negative number has greater magnitude than the positive number, the sum will be negative If the positive number has greater magnitude than the negative number, the sum will be positive If the negative and positive numbers have the same magnitude, the sum will be zero.
How do you determine if the sum of two integers with different signs is positive or negative?
The sum will retain the sign of whichever integer has the higher absolute value. Since 7 is greater than 4, -7 + 4 = -3 7 + -4 = 3
Two integers have a difference of -11 and the sum of -3 what are the integers?
-8
A negative plus a positive equels?
A negative or a positive! It depends on the question.EXAMPLES-7 + 3 = -4 ( a negative answer)-7 + 8 = 1 (a positive answer)IF you mean a negative times a positive, the answer is negative:-3 x 5 = -15
