Negative numbers, subtracting

Project Remodel Building 7 to provide four additional offices by the end of the 3rd quarter at a cost not to exceed 17,500. If you prefer over budget and schedule amounts to be negative numbers, subtract actual from budget and planned. Under budget and schedule amounts will then be positive numbers. 

To obtain the predicted shift for the carbon atom in methane, we subtract its absolute value from that of the reference molecule, resulting in a predicted shift of -3.9 ppm, which is in reasonable agreement with the experimental value of -7.0. Note the sign convention for shifts a negative number indicates that there is more shielding in the specified molecule than in the reference molecule, and a positive number indicates that there is less shielding than in the reference molecule. 

This calculation of the standard cell potential for the Daniell cell used the mathematical concept that the subtraction of a negative number is equivalent to the addition of its positive value. You saw that 0.342 V - (-0.762 V) = 0.342 V + 0.762 V... 

Count the total number of valence electrons contributed by the electrically neutral atoms. If the species being considered is an ion, add one electron to the total for each negative charge subtract one for each positive charge. 

What about static leg It must be added to Eq. (6.14) AP If the flowing fluid elevation rises, then the AP of static leg APs will be a negative number to be subtracted from AP On the other hand, if the flowing fluid has a falling elevation sum, pipe start to pipe termination, APs will be a positive addition to AP. Equation (6.7) is to be applied again, but here with slightly different nomenclature, making Eq. (6.15) ... 

If we want to enter a negative number, the number is entered first, and then its sign is changed with the change sign key, not the subtraction key. 

Step 3 Calculate the third row entries by adding the numbers of moles of products in the first two rows and subtracting the numbers of moles of each reactant in the second row from the corresponding number in the first row. (If you ever get a negative number of moles in row 3, you have made a mistake somewhere.)... 

Operations of equal precedence are done from left to right except for exponentiation and unary minus, which are done from right to left. (Unary minus is a minus sign that denotes a negative number rather than a subtraction.)... 

By convention, the electronegativity difference is calculated by subtracting the less electronegative element s value from the value for the more electronegative element. In this way, negative numbers are avoided. 

Subtract 18 from both sides, leaving j + j = j + j- Since y is larger than j, the left side of the equation (quantity A) is negative and the right side (quantity B) is positive. A positive number is always greater than a negative number, so quantity B is greater. 

Subtract the mean from each of the measurements represented. (Note that for measurements greater than the mean, these subtractions will result in positive numbers but for measurements less than the mean the results will be negative numbers.) The results of these subtractions are called the differences (d). 

A chain calculation is a series of two or more operations performed on three or more numbers. To the calculator the sequence is a series of two-number operations in which the first number is always the result of all calculations completed to that point. For example, in X -l- Y - Z the calculator first finds X -l- Y = A. The quantity A is already in and displayed by the calculator. All that needs to be done is to subtract Z from it. In the following example, we deliberately begin with a negative number to illustrate the way such a number is introduced to the calculator -2.45 -l-18.7 + 0.309 - 24.6 = ... 

Count the total number of valence electrons present. Remember that an element s group number (lA-SA gives the number of valence electrons it contributes to the total number. For polyatomic ions, add electrons to the total number to account for negative charges subtract electrons from the total number to account for positive charges.
