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 .

Eduardwww [97]

draw a perpendicular line from the directrix passing through the focus, this will be the line of symmetry. The vertex(h, k) will be located on the line half way between the focus and directrix. The distance from the focus to the vertex is called the focal length, call it a. The then equation is (x - h)^2 = 4a(y - k) the equation can be manipulated to y = 1/4a(x - h)^2 + k hope it helps

Which angles are linear pairs? Check all that apply
dangina [55]

Answer:

A linear pair of angles is formed when two lines intersect. Two angles are said to be linear if they are adjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines. The measure of a straight angle is 180 degrees, so a linear pair of angles must add up to 180 degrees.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x+5) = 9x + 4x - 34

combine

4x + 20 = 13x  - 34

subtraction

20 = 9x - 34

addition

54 = 9x

division
