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

Back

The result can be found by subtracting the absolute value of the negative integer from the positive integer. For example, 1 + (-5) = 1 - 5 = -4.

How do you subtract a negative integer from a positive integer?

Back

Subtracting a negative integer is the same as adding its absolute value. For example, 5 - (-12) = 5 + 12 = 17.

Front

What is the product of a negative integer and a positive integer?

Back

The product of a negative integer and a positive integer is always negative. For example, -7 x 4 = -28.

Front

What is the product of two negative integers?

What is the identity property of addition?

Back

The identity property of addition states that adding zero to any integer does not change its value. For example, a + 0 = a.

Front

What is the identity property of multiplication?

Back

The identity property of multiplication states that multiplying any integer by one does not change its value. For example, a x 1 = a.

Front

What is the commutative property of addition?

Back

The commutative property of addition states that the order in which two numbers are added does not affect the sum. For example, a + b = b + a.
