What is the difference? Is there one?

no if you are using a normal number system

First one is equal to -.5
Second is equal to -2

>>728506402
you are fucking dense

>>728506402
Wait what?
Are you sure?

>>728506384
I'm going into calculus soon-ish. Does that make a difference?

No, my old math teacher just taught us to move the negative symbol to make it refer to the whole fraction.

One is a nigger and the other is a jew

>>728506665
And you are their son hahhahhaha

multiply them both by 2/1 you FUCKING USELESS PIECE OF SHIT

>>728506612
that, along with the contents of your post, proves you are too young for this board and should leave immediately

>>728506261
-1 + -1 2
-- -- = -- or 2/4ths half .5
2 2 4

1 1 2
-- + -- = -- .5 2/4ths half .5
-2 2 4

they are both the same

It doesn't. This is basic math so I'm not sure how you skipped this.

>>728506873
jest of it 2 negatives = a postive they hold the same vaule

>>728506261
theyre equal dip

both equal - (1/2)

it just has to do with multiplication.
-1/2 * 1/-2 = -1/-2

Depending on wether or not the top is negative or the bottom is negative decides when you can get rid of the sign. in given case to get rid of the negative signs you would have to multiply by
-1/-2 * -1/-1 = 1/2

Okay thanks everyone.
Byeeeeeee

negative in the denominator or in the numerator mean the fraction is negative

It's hard to tell sometimes

>>728506261
you have to use the square root of -1 to get rid of a negtive in the denumerator.

just like the square root of (1/-2) is positive but the square root of (-1/2) is imaginary

>>728506612
you are like a baby

>>728506261
No there isn't.
Sleep peacefully.

they are both equal to (e^ i pi)/11.999...

you don't know shit you fucking retard

There is a difference because you have to move the negative sign to the top on the right expression, and then move it to the outside, vs. the left expression where you just have to move it to the outside to evaluate it.

Right side is two steps and left side is one step so there is a difference.

>>728506384
This is actually true. Case in point I recently had to work through the proof of a theorem that involved 'assume 2 is not equal to 0'. Fucking abstract algebra man, it takes you weird places

>>728507231
Made you reply, didn't it?

>>728508284
kek

>>728506261
You can write it as -1 (1/2) for either

>>728508457
Ha, I bet you're still an undergrad. Last week I did a proof where all I was given was that ω1 is not equal to 0 and that the continuum hypothesis is false. lrn2maths

No, the only difference is a retard formatted the second one.

get on my level

>>728506261
-1/2 = (-1)*(1/2) = [(-1/1)*(-1/-1)]*(1/2) = [(-1*-1)/(1*-1)]*(1/2) = (1/-1)*(1/2) = 1/-2

here's a more interesting one OP

HEY OP

on the left u have negative applied to the ONE
on the right you have negataive applied to the TWO

you can put le negative symbol beside the fraction bar to basically shorthand "-(1/2)" which is androgynous and may result in multiple solutions depending on its function.

>>728512554
Your mom's androgynous

>>728508948
Lol set theorists

>>728507523

Nice bullshit.

>>728508948
lmao you fucking want to one up someone on math in 4chan? No one fucking cares what education you have here. If you're trying to stroke your own ego this is the wrong place

Never seen /sci/ huh?

1. Another craft - most likely Shuttle
2. Contrast makes them too faint to see with such a bright image of the satellite front and center
3. Satellites are quite small and orbit is VERY VERY big duh

Math is great, every mathemetician is required to believe in their echo chamber buzzwords, but none of it really matters so the jokes on them! Haha, mathematics is hilarious!

thats pretty obvious tho, just multiply it by i/i

honestly i still don't get how the op is true. i guess my mind is just too complex

>>728506261
Here's something to take care of with fractions.

It's literally the number above divided by the number below.

Don't be so full of yourself.

OP's is the same. Multiply one side by -1/-1
