Answer: -2 4/15

Step-by-step explanation: To properly subtract, we need to find a common denominator. We can list the multiples of 3 and 5 to find the common denominator:

3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15

5: 5, 10, 15

The first common multiple we see is 15.

Calculation:

3 · 3 = 9

9 + 1 = 10

3 1/3 = 10/3

5 x 5 = 25

25 + 3 = 28

-5 3/5 = -28/5

Now to convert into fifteen as the denominator:

-28/5 = -28 x 3/5 x 3 = -84/15

10/3 = 10 x 5/3 x 5 = 50/15

Now to subtract accordingly:

50/15 - 84/15 = -34/15

Final answer: -34/15 (can be reduced to -2 4/15).

Answer:

B ) Negative

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 3xy

when x>0 and y<0

The value of the expression 3xy will be negative.

This is because the product of a positive and negative number will always be negative.

For illustration,

Let x=5>0 and y=-5<0

3xy=3(5)(-5)=-75
