The statement is always true.
Let's take -.12*-.5*.2
-.12*-.5*.2=.012
And:
-.2*-.4*.3=.024
A positive multiplied by a positive is, obviously, a positive.
The result of two negative numbers multiplying together is always positive.
So, negative*negative*positive is a positive answer.
I think u should cut at tpo and the bottom so u will get triangle and a rectangle. Then u calculate the triangle part which is 1/2 x (17-7) x (22-10) = ?
Then u calculate the rectangle part L x B which is 10 x 17 = ? Then when you have the ans already, add them!
You would put x over a hundred because you don't know what percent it is then you would put 180 over 240 because the other part of the prapotion is is over of. then you would cross multiply and get 7.5
