Question

choose any two negative integers is the sum of the integer less or greater than the value of either of the integers will this be true no matter which integer you choose explain​

Answer 1

Let , -3 and -5 , be two negative Integers.

Now sum of two negative integers, always yield a negative integer with negative sign behind the Integer.

⇒ (-3)+(-5)= -8

You will observe that, Numbers on the left of number line ,is always smaller than, number on the right of number line.

→-3 > -8

As, well as,→ -5 > -8

So, We Observe that, Sum of the two integers is always less than both the individual integer.

Answer 2

Explanation:

The sum of two negative integers will be less than the value of both of the integers. This is true regardless of which numbers.

Let the first negative integer be -3

The second negative integer is -4

Thus the sum of these two negative integers is:

-3+(-4)

-3-4 = -7

-7< -3

-7< -4....
