Question

what is the sign of -x/-y when x>0 and y>0

Answer 1

Given that we have -x/-y when x is greater than 0 and y is also greater than 1, the result will have a positive(+) sign.

Example: Let x = 8 and y = 4,

To solve the above, we have:

$\frac{-x}{-y}\text{ = }\frac{-8}{-4}\text{ = 2}$

From the example above we can see that the answer is a positive value, which means it has a positive(+) sign.
