Answer: a. Positive, because the products (3)(-3) and (-2)(4) are negative, and the product of two negative numbers is positive
Step-by-step explanation: It is also possible to rearrange the factors.
(3)(4) = 12 a positive number.
(-3)(-2) = 6, a positive number. Again "a negative times a negative is a positive" --Jaime Escalante, <em>Stand and Deliver</em>
Now you have two positive numbers: 12×6 = 72
The product is positive either way.
Answer:
For the sum of the digits of Michelle’s father to drop to 1/3 of its’ former value, the second digit must go from 9 to 0, in one year.
Thus, if he is 39 this year, the sum of the digits of his age will be 12. Next year, when the sum of the digits would be 4+0, or 4, then the digits of his age would be 1/3rd of their former value.
Therefore, he is 39, and will be 40 next year
