Dear Robert
You did not solve the math I asked you to do.
You prove you need to revert to imaginary math and
also can have a multiple answer to the square root of 1.
1 or -1 can be the answer.
How do you call two mathematical answers for the same
mathematical problem as logical?
Logics in basic math have one answer... not two.

The only problem you gave me was (-4)(-4). ?I explained it.
?The answer is 16. ?I will go through it briefly again. ?If
you have a set of Cartesian coordinates, then on the x axis,
negative values are to the left of the origin, and positive
values are to the right of the origin. ?So -4 is four units
to the left of the origin. ?If you multiply a number by -1,
it moves the number to the other side of the origin.

If -4 is to the left then so is - 1
Why are you changing the minus to the right?

Well, let me go through all of the possibilities again. ?First
of all, you can have a positive number times a positive
number. ?(1)(1)=1 Second, you can have a negative number
times a positive number. ?If you have a +1 and multiply it by
a -1, it moves to the opposite side of the origin.
?(1)(-1)=(-1)

Robert,
You need to give a logical reason for having an east direction
being multiplied by a west direction.
What logical reason would you do such to justify a -1 times a 1
at all?

Think of it as a change in polarity.

It is not a change of polarity.

So
left 4 times left 4 should be left 16.
Nope. ?Multiplying by a negative number changes the sign.

There is no physical reason it should
Again
You have
4 missing piles
4 missing objects from each pile.
16 missing object.
No physical reason to jump the 0 line at all.

Simple and as logical as that.
No rights come from multiplying lefts.-

If you have a -5 and multiply it by 4, the answer is -20. ?It
is the same as adding four(-5)'s together.

Please give an example that you are multiplying 5 missing
objects times 4 non missing objects.
Again,
You are not using such physically and instead just jumping to
the mathematical illogic of jumping the 0.

If you have a (-5) and multiply it by (-4), it is the same as
multiplying it by (-1)(4), meaning that the -1 changes the
sign on the -5, making it 5, then you add four 5's together.

No -5 times -4 is the same as multiplying 5 time 4 but on the
other side of the river called 0.
5 times 4 and all occuring on the negative side produces
20 on the negative side so -5 times -4 = -20.
You have no physical reasoning to jump the 0.
As I said.
oranges and apples.
Multiplying oranges does not give apples.
Oranges | | | | | | | 0 | | | | | | | Apples.- Hide quoted

Well do what you want to do. ?If you have ?5 East and multiply
it by 1 then you nave 5 East. ?If you multiply it by -1 then
you have 5 west. That is the way it has always been done.

I know how it has always been done.
The problem is such a way is illogical.
As I said,
Multiplying one side by the other side makes no physical sense
at all.
Oranges time apples is just silly.
And so is multiplying a negative times a postitive
or east times west, etc..
And the best part about my method is there is no imganiary
square root answers needed for "oranges" or negatives.

Well, that is fine. ?I don't see how oranges and apples relate to
distances in relativity.

As I said.
An orange can be considered the distance eastward and an apple
could be considered distance westward or the opposite if you wish.
Removing the apples and oranges you are still left with
east times east equals west.
and that is wrong.
Just as east times west should not equal anything because such
is also wrong.
Multiplying one direction times another is physically not gonna
happen in reality.
There is no physical reason ever to mulltiply an east moving
distance times a west moving distance.
Just as there is no physical reason to ever multiply oranges times
apples.- Hide quoted text -

How do you plan to show velocities?

What situation do you multiply a negative direction times
a positive direction in reality?

The multiplication factor is actually "unitless" and therefore
it never actually has a negative sign or a postive sign and the
end result is that you keep the direction you started with, so
if you said multiply 4 east (-4) times 4 the unitless 4 is still
actually
an eastward motion (-4) and when you multiply eastward you
increase eastwardly, not west so you get (-16) = 16 east.
So multiplying eastward increases eastward, and multiplying
westward increases westward.
Again.
The simple way to do such is know there are no real negatives.- Hide

Well, OK, so suppose you have a truck going 30 miles per hour, and
someone on the bed of the truck throws a baseball back in the
direction the truck came from at a speed of 50 miles per hour. �What
is the velocity of the baseball?

First it would have nothing to do with "multiplication"
so simple subtraction works fine.
30 truck speed towards lets say east minus 50 west would mean
20 west.
Just like it says in basic math
(+30) - (+50) = -(+20)
The velocity would simply be 20 positive mph in the west direction
called negative.
Or do you think the speed would be a true "negative speed"
wrt the ground?
How can you do negative speed wrt the ground?- Hide quoted text -

Well, I just wanted to see how you were doing it with respect to
apples and oranges. Speed is the magnitude of velocity. Speed is the
same regardless of the direction of movement. It is always positive.
What it appears to me you are doing is saying velocity is always
speed by using apples and oranges instead of a set of Cartesian
coordinates.
