What is the result of adding a negative integer to a positive integer?

Back

The result depends on the absolute values of the integers. If the absolute value of the negative integer is greater than the positive integer, the result will be negative. If the positive integer's absolute value is greater, the result will be positive.

What is the concept of absolute value in relation to adding integers?

Back

Absolute value is the distance of a number from zero on the number line, regardless of direction. It is used to determine the magnitude of integers when adding.

Front

How do you determine the sign of the result when adding integers of different signs?

Back

Compare the absolute values of the integers. The integer with the larger absolute value determines the sign of the result.
