Mathematics

andre [41]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

<u>The answer is m = 5</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve the proportional equation, this way:

3/m-2 = 7/m+2

3 * (m + 2) = 7 * (m - 2) [Lowest common denominator (m + 2) * (m - 2)]

3m + 6 = 7m - 14

-4m = -14 - 6 (Like terms)

-4m = -20

m = -20/-4

m = 5

<u>The answer is m = 5</u>

Which product is negative?

The product that will give a negative answer is: −3 × 4 × (−2) × (−7) = -168.

<h3>How to Find the Product of Negative Numbers?</h3>

The rule when multiplying two negative numbers is that, the negative signs will cancel each other. That is, minus multiplied by minus will give as plus.

For example, -a × -b = ab

Also, "plus" multiplied by "minus" will also give as "minus. For example:

-a × b = -ab.

Using the above rule, let's find the product of the following:

−3 × 5 × (−6) × 4 = -15 × (-24)

−3 × 5 × (−6) × 4 = 360 [minus × minus = plus]

−7 × (−3) × (−9) × 0 = 0 [anything multiplied by 0 must result to 0]

−4 × (−6) × (−3) × (−5)

= 24 × 15

−4 × (−6) × (−3) × (−5)  = 360

−3 × 4 × (−2) × (−7)

= -12 × 14

−3 × 4 × (−2) × (−7) = -168

Therefore, the product that will give a negative answer is: −3 × 4 × (−2) × (−7) = -168.
