Multiplying positive numbers always comes out positive, no matter how many there are. So you can forget about the positive ones.
Every two negative numbers in a multiplication produce a positive.
Another way to say that is: If the number of negative ones is EVEN,
the answer is positive, and if it's ODD, the answer is negative.
That monster product of eight numbers in problem #12 will be negative,
because there are an odd amount of negative factors in it.
f(-9) means x is -9
Replace x with -9 and solve:
2/3(-9) - 6
Simplify:
-6 - 6 = -12
f(-9) = -12
Answer:
Logically, the answer is either 12 or 42
Answer:
Y= 42
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer would be 42 because if x=9 and the equation is 5x you have to multiply and that will give you 45 and then subtract 3 which would give you 42
