It depends on what the value of x is. If x is a positive number, then it will be negative because a negative number multiplied by a positive number is negative. If x is a negative number, then it will be positive because the product of two negative numbers is always a positive number.
NO!!! Squaring a negative number is a positive answer. -a X -a (+)a^2 Remember the table for multiplying negative/positive numbers. X + = + X - = - X + = - X - = + If no sign is given , readf it as positive(+)/.
A negative exponent becomes positive in the reciprocal. So if you have a number a^x where x is negative, then, a^x = 1/(a^-x) and, since x is negative, -x is positive.
A negative number multiplied by a positive number is always a negative number: 3 x 100 = 300 Therefore -3 x 100 = -300

A positive number. Positive Number x Positive Number = Positive Number Positive Number x Negative Number = Negative Number Negative Number x Negative Number = Positive Number
a negative number plus a negative number is negative. here is a proof.(-x)+(-x)(-1)x+(-1)x-1(x+x)-1(2x)-2xa negative number times a negative number is positive though.
A negative number. A positive number x a positive number = a positive number A negative number x a negative number = a positive number A positive number x a negative number = a negative Hope this helps :D
(positive number) x (positive number) = positive number (positive number)/(positive number) = positive number (positive number) x ( negative number) = negative number (positive number)/( negative number) = negative number (negative number) x (negative number) = positive number (negative number)/(negative number) = positive number

When you divide a negative number by a positive number or a positive number by a negative number, the division is done the same way as when both numbers are positive, and the quotient is negative. When dividing a negative number by a negative number, divide as usual, and the quotient is positive. + ÷ + = + + ÷ - = - - ÷ + = - - ÷ - = + + x + = + + x - = - - x + = - - x - = +
The result will always be negative. Positive X Positive = Positive Negative X Negative = Positive Positive X Negative = Negative
13. For any non-negative number x, abs(x) = x. For any negative number x, abs(x) = -x.
A positive number multiplied by another positive number yields a positive number. A negative number multiplied by another negative number also yields a positive number. Only multiplying a negative number by a positive number (or the other way around) yields a negative number as the product.
when -n = x and x is a negative #, n is the absolute value of x
a negative multiplied by a negative results in a positive number. -5 x -5 = +25
