Explanation:
This can be explained by thinking numbers on the number line as:
Lets take we have to multiply a positive number (say, 2) with a negative number say (-3)
<u>2×(-3)</u>
Suppose someone is standing at 0 on the number line and to go to cover -3 , the person moves 3 units in the left hand side. Since, we have to compute for 2×(-3), The person has to cover the same distance twice. At last, he will be standing at -6, which is a negative number. 
A image is shown below to represent the same.
<u>Thus, a positive times a negative is a negative number.</u>
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
The first one
Step-by-step explanation:
To figure out which one is the best deal, for each one how much <em>one</em> t-shirt costs.
<u>First deal:</u>
3 t-shirts for $28.95
To figure out how much money one t-shirt would cost, you divide $28.95 by 3.
1 t-shirt = 28.95/3 = $9.65.
<u>Second deal:</u>
4 t-shirts for $39
Same thing as the last one, except since there are 4 t-shirts you divide $39 by 4.
1 t-shirt = 39/4 = $9.75
<u>Third deal:</u>
5 t-shirts for $49.95
This time you will divide 49.95 by 5.
1 t-shirt = 49.95/5 = $9.99
The last step is to compare the three deals, and since you are trying to find the one that costs the <em>least</em> you can see that the first deal is the best one, because $9.65 per shirt is cheaper than $9.75 and $9.99
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
x = 30 ∠A = 132 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Set the equations equal to each other to solve for x
5x - 18 = 3x + 42
-3x        - 3x               Subtract 3x from both sides
2x - 18 = 42
     + 18  + 18              Add 18 to both sides
2x = 60                     Divide both sides by 2
x = 30
Now plug this into the equation for angle A
∠A = 5(30) − 18        Multiply
∠A = 150 - 18           Subtract
∠A = 132 degrees
