Question

Is the sum positive negative or zero without adding -8+20

Answer 1

Positive

Explanation:

Without adding you can tell wether a number is positive or negative with addition because it is basically a number line. Think of subtracting -8 from 0 which would give you -8. Now add 20 to it causing it to get out of the negatives and become positive.

Answer 2

positive

Explanation:

-8+20 will have a positive sum because the positive number 20 is greater than the negative number 8
