Answer:

  • The statement is False

Step-by-step explanation:

As because,if we take one positive even and negative even then the difference will be positive

Example:-

Let's take one is 4 and another is -6

Then the difference will 4-(-6)=4+6=10

The no 10 is a positive number.

Answer:

The statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

Take, for example, numbers 8 and -4. Let's find the difference:

(8) - (-4)= 8+4= 12.

The difference is positive while both of the values are not positive. Hence, the statement is false.
