When working with negative numbers, you typically start with the number that represents the value you are calculating. If you are adding or subtracting, you consider the signs of both numbers. For example, when adding a negative number, you effectively subtract its absolute value from the other number; when subtracting a negative number, you add its absolute value. Therefore, the process depends on the specific operation being performed.

How would you explain to a seventh grader the difference between the domains of an odd root radical function and an even root radical function?
To start with, when you multiply an even number of negative numbers, the answer is positive. When you multiply an odd number of negative numbers, the answer is negative. When you multiply any number of positive numbers, the answer is always positive. For positive numbers, the value of a power is always positive. For negative numbers, the value of an odd power is negative, and the value of an even power is positive. Finding roots is the inverse of taking powers, so that an odd-root function can be evaluated for any value of x. An even-root function, however, cannot be evaluated when the value of x is negative, since an even power can never result in a negative answer. The domain of an odd root function is all real numbers; the domain of an even root function is the non-negative real numbers.
What is the sum of negative 65 plus positive 41 using a number line?
To find the sum of negative 65 and positive 41 using a number line, start at -65. Moving to the right (toward positive numbers) 41 units brings you to -24. Thus, the sum of negative 65 and positive 41 is -24.
How do you order integers from greatest to least with negative and positive numbers?
To order integers from greatest to least, start by identifying the largest number, which will be the highest positive integer or the least negative integer. Compare the positive numbers first, placing them in descending order, and then compare the negative numbers, placing them in ascending order (since they are less than zero). Finally, combine both groups, ensuring that all positive numbers precede the negative numbers. For example, the order of -3, 2, -1, and 4 would be 4, 2, -1, -3.

Does a negative and positive equal a negative?
If you have a negative and a positive, then all you have is a negative and a positive. If you want to talk about performing some arithmetic operation on a pair of numbers where each number has one of those signs, we can certainly discuss that. But you'll need to be much more clear in your question. A great start would be to specify which arithmetic operation you're interested in, and we can go from there.
Why is 0 on the number line?
So the positive and negative numbers know where to start.
How do you subtract a negative number from a positive number?
you subtract the numbers then he higher number to start out with is the awnser. example: negative 3 - positive 7= 3-7=4 the higher number is 7 so i is positive. the final answer is positive 4
Can you put this number in order -11.111 -111.11 1.11 11.1 -11.1 -1.11?
Answer: I cannot answer this question. I do not know where the numbers start and end. Answer: Put negative numbers before positive numbers. For the positive numbers, the one with the least digits is smaller. For the same number of digits, compare each digit until you find a different number of digits. For the negative numbers, it is the opposite as for positive numbers.

What is the smallest number not to start with 0?
Numbers don't stop in either direction. The smallest positive number not starting with 0 is 1. The smallest negative number is infinite.
Does there have to be a zero on a number line?
No, not necessarily. A number line can start and end wherever you need it. But if you are including both positive and negative numbers, then there needs to be a position for zero.
When you square a negative number is it positive or negative?
The square of a real number is always positive no matter which real number you start with. Therefore, a negative number squared is positive. For example: 2 * 2 = 4, -2 * -2 = 4.
If when you take the square root of a number you will get a real number?
The answer depends on the level that you are at. Since you are asking the question, you are not advanced enough to know about complex numbers. So the answer is as follows: When you take the square root of a non-negative number you will get a real number. In fact, if you start with a positive number you will get two real numbers - one positive and one negative. For example, sqrt(0.25) = -0.5 and +0.5
If a negative number squared is positive why isn't the square root of a positive number negative?
When a negative number is squared, the negative sign is essentially squared along with the number, resulting in a positive value. However, when taking the square root of a positive number, we are looking for the value that, when squared, gives us the original positive number. Since both a positive and negative number can square to the same positive value, the convention is to consider the principal (positive) square root by default. The negative square root is also a valid solution in many contexts, but for simplicity and consistency, the positive square root is typically chosen.
How do you order integers from greatest to least with negative and positive numbers?

What is next number in logical sequence of 18 13 9 6 4?
The numbers are decreasing by a number that decrements by 1 every time. Notice that the numbers start increasing after a while because the decrement is now a negative number. A negative negative number is positive. 18 13 9 6 4 3 3 4 6 ...
