Double Negatives In Math

Introduction of double negatives in math:

The double negative in math deals with the signed numbers in the math. The double negatives give some rule in which the math rules can be made while the summing of the numbers is made and results to find the solution of the numbers. The double negative can have the values in positive manner. The double negatives come under the arithmetic operations.

Double negatives in math:
The negative numbers are given with (-) signed in front of the numerals. The negative numbers are value lower than the zero. The decreases in the value are made in the negative numbers. The double negative numbers are also named as the addition of the signed numbers. The positive numbers are made to have in the way in which the values are represented that is the values are more than the zero. The signed numbers can be done through the some of the rules which are,

` (-)xx (-) = (+)`

`(-)xx (+) = (-)`

`(+)xx (-) = (-)`

The above are the some of the rules for the negative numbers. The double negative numbers are which the product of the two negative numbers results to the positive of the particular value. Then the summing of the double negatives gives us the summing process with the negative signed value. The subtracting of the double negatives results to the negative signed numbers.


Examples for the double negatives in math:


Example:

What is -6+ (-2)?

Solution:

From above: (- )+(-) becomes a negative sign.

-6+ (-2) = -6 - 2

Answer: -6+ (-2) = -8.

More example problems for adding signed numbers:

(-) 7+ (-2) = -7 - 2 = -9.

(-) 8-(+2) = -8 - 2 = -10.

Example:

What is -5+ (-2)?

Solution:

-5+ (-2) = -5 - 2 = -7.

Answer: -5+ (-2) = -7.

Example: What is -6 - (+3)?

-6 - (+3) = -6 - 3

Answer: -6- (+3) = -9.
