No, when you add two negative numbers, the result is always negative. This is because you are essentially combining two quantities that are both below zero, which pushes the total further into the negative range. For example, adding -3 and -5 gives you -8, which is still negative.
What else can I help you with?
When adding a negative and a positive would your answer be positive?
Depends on the two numbers, eg. if its -5+2 your answer would be -3. But if your adding -4+8, your answer would be 4.*But when your multiplying a + by a - , the answer is always negative.
Is the product of 33 negative numbers and 2 positive numbers a positive number or a negative number?
(The product of 33 negative numbers) x (2 positive numbers) = (negative sign) x (positive sign) = negative sign
What is adding and subtracting integers?
Integers are whole numbers, both positive and negative. Therefore, adding and subtracting integers would be adding and subtracting whole numbers. Examples: 8+2 -8+2 8-2 -8-2
When adding 2 numbers the same sign what sign do you use for the Sum?
When adding two numbers with the same sign, the sum will have that same sign. For example, if both numbers are positive, the result will be positive; if both numbers are negative, the result will be negative. This is because you're essentially combining quantities in the same direction.
Can positive and negative make a negative?
Yes, if you are adding 2 numbers together and the value of the negative number is larger than the value of the positive number. Yes, if you are multiplying a positive and a negative number together. Yes, if you are dividing a positive and a negative number by each other.
What are the rules for adding integers?
Positive + Positive = Positive Negative + Negative = Negative If it's a negative + a positive, it depends on the numbers. For example: -2 + 1 = -1 -107 + 213 = 106
When adding a negative and a positive would your answer be positive?

What is -2 plus -2?
-4
What are the rules for adding positive and negative numbers?
If you are adding a positive number, then this is the same as normal addition. For instance, 4 add positive 5 is 9. negative 1 add positive 8 is 7. If you are adding a negative number, then this is the same as subtracting that number. For instance 6 add negative 1 is 5. negative 7 add negative 2 is negative 9.
Is the product of 33 negative numbers and 2 positive numbers a positive number or a negative number?
(The product of 33 negative numbers) x (2 positive numbers) = (negative sign) x (positive sign) = negative sign
What is adding and subtracting integers?
Integers are whole numbers, both positive and negative. Therefore, adding and subtracting integers would be adding and subtracting whole numbers. Examples: 8+2 -8+2 8-2 -8-2
Can positive and negative make a negative?
Yes, if you are adding 2 numbers together and the value of the negative number is larger than the value of the positive number. Yes, if you are multiplying a positive and a negative number together. Yes, if you are dividing a positive and a negative number by each other.
Are two negative numbers equal to zero?
Never. The sum of two negative numbers is a negative number with a value less than either of them, e.g. (-1) + (-2) = (-3) Adding two negative numbers is the same as adding their positive absolute values, and expressing the sum as a negative. If the two negative numbers are the same, and you subtract one from the other, the result is 0. e.g. (-2) - (-2) is the same as (-2) + 2 , which equals 0.
Why do numbers have both positive and negative roots?
because you can get a positive number as EITHER a product of 2 positive numbers OR the product of the negatives of the SAME 2 numbers; the product of 2 negative numbers is positive.
What are the rules when adding or subtracting negative numbers?
When subtracting negative numbers change the subtraction sign to a plus and change the second number (which would appear to be positive) to a negative. ex. -14 - 7=?/-14 + -7= -21 When adding negative numbers just add them as they appear. ex. -2 + -5= -7
What are some examples on adding integers?
Adding integers involves combining whole numbers, whether positive or negative. For example, adding two positive integers like 3 and 5 gives you 8 (3 + 5 = 8). When adding a positive and a negative integer, such as 7 and -4, you subtract the negative from the positive, resulting in 3 (7 + (-4) = 3). If both integers are negative, like -2 and -6, you simply add their absolute values and keep the negative sign, yielding -8 (-2 + -6 = -8).
If your positive and negative number are the same does it become a negative number or positive number?
It depends on what you are doing to the two identical numbers. If you are multiplying them, it becomes a negative. If you are dividing them, it becomes a negative. If you are adding them, it will always be zero (e.g., 2+ -2 = 0, etc.). There are two ways to subtract. If you are subtracting a positive from a negative, the number remains negative. If you are subtracting a negative from a positive, or a negative from a negative, the negative becomes a positive and you just add from there.
