How do you determine whether a sum will be positive, negative, or 0 when adding a positive and a negative integer?

If the integers have the same absolute value ... they're the same number
but with different signs ... then their sum is zero.

Example:    (plus) 927 added to (negative) 927  =  zero


If the integers have different absolute values ... they're different numbers with different
signs ... then their sum has the same sign as the one with the bigger absolute value.

Examples:

==>   (plus) 92 added to (negative) 91
         92 and 91 are 1 number apart on the number line.
         The positive number is bigger than the negative number.
         So the sum is  +1 . 

==>    (plus) 35 added to (negative) 37
          35 and 37 are 2 numbers apart on the number line.
          The negative number is bigger than the positive one.
          So the sum is  -2 .

If there are 40 boys and 60 girls in a room, fill out all of the possible ratios of boys to girls that could be made.
galina1969 [7]

40+60=100. So one person equals 1%, meaning 40% are boys and 60% are girls. By simplifying, we will find that possible ratios below the value of 100 are 40:60, 4:6, 2:3, and 20:30.

Simplify. x/4x+x^2
djyliett [7]

\bf \cfrac{x}{4x+x^2}\implies \cfrac{\begin{matrix} x \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix} x \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~(4+x)}\implies \cfrac{1}{4+x}\qquad \{x|x\in \mathbb{R}, x\ne -4\}

if you're wondering about the restriction of x ≠ -4, is due to that would make the fraction with a denominator of 0 and thus undefined.
