What is the growth rate from a negative to a positive number?

I'm not really sure what you're asking.  The growth rate would depend on the formula itself, so without the formula, there's no way to determine the answer.  You'd need one to get the other.  I imagine that there could be an infinite number of growth rates and in infinite number of growth-rate-formulas.

If you need a positive result, then y will only be a real number when x - 1 is >= 0.\n\nx - 1 >= 0\nx >= 1\n\nSo x must be greater or equal to 1.

I imagine what you mean is that, if temperature goes from higher to lower the "delta T", or change in temperature, is negative. If it goes from lower to higher, the "delta T" is positive

subtracting a negative is the same as adding a positive\n\nmultiplying/dividing like signs (+,+ ; -,-) will give a positive product/quotient\n\nmultiplying/dividing opposite signs will give a negative answers

use the equation\nE(enthalpy change) = m(mass) c(specific heat) DeltaT(change in temperature)\n\ntemperature change is initial temperature minus final\nsince temperature increased then the temp change is negative\n\n-2.00C

Well first if one number is negative & the other is positive, then no matter what the positive number is bigger.  If you have a 2 and a 588 obviously 588 is going to be bigger.  If you are talking about a higher level then if it has absolute value signs ( I45I)  Then you totally ignore the negative signs and just look at the digits inside.  If you want to compare two negative numbers the higher the digits the smaller the actual number. \nFor example:\n-7>-10  because if you are down 10 dollars, you are down more money than if you are down 7 dollars.  If you had 10 dollars to both sides then it will still be true.\n-7 + 10>-10 +  10\nyour new equation would read\n3>0\nSo no matter what as long as you add or subtract the same thing to both sides the problem will stay true.

-1.4172^2=\n\n-1.4172 times -1.4172.\n\nA negative times a negative is always positive, so you just multiply them together to get a positive value.  When you do so, you get a number a little larger than 2.  The square root of two (the number that, when multiplied by itself, equals 2) is about 1.414.... Your number is slightly larger, so the answer will be slightly larger than 2.\n\nHope this helps.

Adding a negative is the same as subtracting a positive.  Subtracting a negative is the same as adding a positive.

I believe that would be like -3 and +3. Negative numbers and positive numbers are on opposite sides of the zero, therefore they are opposite points on the number line.

Is that the same principle as two negatives making a positive?\nThen the answer would be yes.

a. 10.9\n\n\nusing Gordon's dividend growht discount model, which is Dividends / (discount rate - growth), we see that:\n\n$1.80 (10.9% - 7%) = $46.15.\n\nof course, you have to use algebra to back into x, which was the 10.9%.

P(n+1) - P(n) is the change in population over one period. \n\nrP is the rate of growth of population, tempered by (1-P(n)/E). \n\nBasically, imagine P(n) is very small compared to the equilibrium population. P(n)/E would be small, and 1-P(n)/E would be close to one. Thus, the growth of population rP(n)*(1-P(n)/P) would be close to rP. \n\nHowever, the model takes into account other factors, e.g. environment, that limits population growth. As P(n) grows, P(n)/E gets closer to 1. If P(n) is almost exactly E, (1-P(n)/E) approaches 0. Thus rP(1-P(n)/E) approaches 0, and the population growth P(n+1) - P(n) approaches 0. \n\nAs a result, the population starts growing very fast, and then slows down as it approaches equilibium value. This relationship would also hold if the population started out too high, and decreased towards equilibrium.

Subtracting a negative number is the equivalent of adding a positive number.\n\nInterestingly, if you were multiplying two negative numbers, the answer would be a positive.
