What is the difference in a math question?
A "difference" is either the result of a subtraction (the difference between 7 and 5 is 7 minus 5), or its absolute value (so that the difference between 7 and 5 is the same as the difference between 5 and 7).
When you subtract a positive from a negative integer is the difference always positive?
The result will always be a negative value. The difference can be looked upon in a neutral way, or depending on the calculation, you may want to say there is a difference by a particular sign. We would normally look on the difference in a positive way. -7 - 5 is - 12. The difference between -7 and -12 is 5. However if you are going from -7 to -12 you have a -5 difference, while going from -12 to -7 you have a 5 difference. So it can depend on perspective.
Square me and my digit difference is 7?
9. 92 = 81. The difference of the digits 8 and 1 is 7.
Sum is 17 with 2 numbers but there difference is 7?
12 + 5 = 17 12 - 5 = 7 12 and 5 is the answer.
The difference of a negative integer and a positive integer is?
An integer that is equal in magnitude to the sum of their absolute values. Its sign is the same as which of the two numbers you are taking the difference from. For example, for the integers 5 and -7. Their absolute values are 5 and 7 so that the sum of the absolute values is 5+7 = 12. Then 5 - (-7) = +12 and -7 - 5 = -12.
