In multiplication, a negative times a positive has a negative answer. if both are positive or both are negative, the answer is positive.
5 * -5 = -25
-5* -5 = 25
in divisions say you have
-5/5 = -1
-5/-5= 1
5/-5= -1
in addition and subtraction, subtracting a negative means to add the two numbers. adding a negative means to subtract the second number.
5+ (-5) = 0
5- (-5) = 10
A=3+b. That is a reasonable expression, because a= the sum of 3 and b, an unknown number.
