Negative add to another negative is?
When you have a minus and a plus sign together, you simply ignore the plus sign. For example -5 + -3 is the same as -5 - 3 which is -8. If you have two minus signs together, you replace them with a plus sign. For example -5 - -3 is the same as -5 + 3 which gives -2. At school I learned a simple rule: 'Minus a minus is a plus'

Do two plus signs make a minus?
In addition and subtraction, if the plus sign is larger than the minus sign, then it's a plus. For example: +10 minus -20 = -10 If the plus sign is smaller than the minus sign, the answer will be a minus. For example: -10 minus + 20 = -10 In multiplication, if you have 2 plus signs, the answer will be a plus sign. If you have 2 minus signs, the answer will be a plus sign then, too. But if you have a plus and a minus sign, then the answer will be a minus. For example: +5 x + 2 = +10 -5 x - 2 = +10 -5 x +2 = -10

Why do batteries have a plus and - sign?
Because one side is the positive side (+) and one side is the negative side (-) They need to be there so people can place them in correctly. On objects there is also a plus and minus sign to match with the ones on the battery. You place the end with the plus sign in to match the end with the plus sign on the object and the end with the minus sign to match the minus sign on the object. Hope this helps!
