Answer:
2 positive * 1 negative = negative
2 negative * 1 positive = positive
Step-by-step explanation:
one positive and 2 negative
(+ * -) * - =
positive times negative = negative * negative = positive
(+ * -) * - = +
now if we change the order by putting parenthesis
+ *( - * -)

negative * positive= negative
- * + * + = negative
The order does not matter
