The [multiplicative] opposite of -2 is -0.5, which is negative.
Yes, a negative number subtracted from a positive number will always be positive. Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding the opposite of the negative number. The opposite of a negative number is always positive. A positive number plus a positive number is always positive.
No, a number is not always greater than its opposite. For any positive number, it is indeed greater than its opposite (negative counterpart), but for zero, the opposite is also zero, making them equal. For negative numbers, the opposite is a positive number, which is greater than the negative number. Thus, the relationship depends on the sign of the number.
The absolute value of a number is always positive or zero, while its opposite is always negative or zero. The relationship between the absolute value of a number and its opposite is that they have the same numerical value but opposite signs. For example, the absolute value of -5 is 5, and the opposite of 5 is -5.
It depends on what you mean by an opposite. Every real number has an additive opposite but 0 does not have a multiplicative opposite.
The answer depends on whether you mean additive opposite (TRUE) or multiplicative opposite (FALSE).

Absolute value is always the opposite of the number.
Opposite of positive number will always be a negative number. The total of the two has to be zero as per the definition. So the zero does not have the opposite number.

For negative numbers, the opposite is a positive number, which is greater than the negative number. Thus, the relationship depends on the sign of the number.
The answer will always be Negative in Sign. If they are the same sign, it will always be Positive in Sign.
The absolute value of a number is always positive or zero, while its opposite is always negative or zero. The relationship between the absolute value of a number and its opposite is that they have the same numerical value but opposite signs. For example, the absolute value of -5 is 5, and the opposite of 5 is -5.
The absolute value is always positive.
The opposite of a number depends on what the relevant operation is. For addition or multiplication - the two common operators - the answer to the question depends on what the first number is.
It depends on what you mean by an opposite. Every real number has an additive opposite but 0 does not have a multiplicative opposite.
An integer is just a whole number, excluding zero. Any positive integer will always have an opposite just by placing a negative sign in front of the positive integer. You can also say that any negative whole number is an integer.
when you are dividing 2 numbers with the same sign the answer is ALWAYS positive but when you are dividing 2 number with opposite signs the answer is ALWAYS negitive. the same is true with multiplication also
The answer depends on whether you mean additive opposite (TRUE) or multiplicative opposite (FALSE).
