Front

What is the result of adding two negative integers?

Back

The result of adding two negative integers is always a negative integer. For example, -2 + (-8) = -10.

Front

How do you add a negative integer to a positive integer?

Back

When adding a negative integer to a positive integer, you subtract the absolute value of the negative integer from the positive integer. For example, 3 + (-8) = 3 - 8 = -5.

Front

What is the result of subtracting a negative integer from a positive integer?

Back

Subtracting a negative integer from a positive integer is equivalent to adding the absolute value of that negative integer. For example, 3 - (-8) = 3 + 8 = 11.

Front

What is the sum of two negative integers, -3 and -2?

Back

The sum of -3 and -2 is -5, since both integers are negative.

Front

What is the result of adding -18 and -6?

Back

The result of adding -18 and -6 is -24, as both numbers are negative.

Front

What is the absolute value of a negative integer?

Back

The absolute value of a negative integer is its positive counterpart. For example, the absolute value of -5 is 5.

Front

How do you determine the sign of the sum of two integers?

Back

The sign of the sum of two integers depends on their absolute values. If the absolute value of the positive integer is greater, the sum is positive; if the absolute value of the negative integer is greater, the sum is negative.

Front

What is the result of -2 + (-5)?

Back

The result of -2 + (-5) is -7, as both integers are negative.

Front

What is the principle behind adding integers with different signs?

Back

When adding integers with different signs, subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value and take the sign of the integer with the larger absolute value.

Front

What is the result of -3 + (-2)?

Back

The result of -3 + (-2) is -5, since both integers are negative.
