Answer:
b=-a
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that b is located the same distance from 0 as another number, a, but in the opposite direction.
so the sum of the two numbers equal zero
a+b=0
a=-b or b=-a
Q must be positive in F.
F. r squared will be positive, because any number times itself is positive, and to get a positive number for the answer, the two numbers you multiply need to be the same sign. If r squared is positive, q must be too.
G. q does not have to be positive. If r is a negative number, then q can be negative. Say q=-2 and r=-3. -2-(-3) changes to -2+3, which equals 1.
H. Again, q can be negative if r is negative (two negative numbers multiplied together equals a positive answer.
J. q can be negative because even a negative number turns positive when squared.

Answer:
f. the sequence goes by the half of the previous number.
= 16, 8, 4, 2, 1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8...
g. the sequence goes by adding the consecutive odd number added to the previous number.
first number= 3.
second number= 3+3
= 6
third number= 6+5
= 11
fourth number= 11+7
= 18
fifth number= 18+9
= 27
sixth number= 27+11
= 38
seventh number= 38+13
= 51, etc.
= 3, 6, 11, 18, 27, 38, 51...
