Mathematics

Alla [95]3 years ago

Answer:

The product of two negative rational numbers can not be negative. Hence, the statement that 'the product will be negative' is FALSE.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a rational number is a number that can be written in the form p/q, where p and q are integers.

A negative rational number is a number that can be represented as -p/q or

(-1) p/q, where p and q are whole numbers.

It must be not that the product of two negative rational numbers would always be positive.

For example, let suppose m = -5 and n = -7 are two negative rational numbers.

Taking the product of  -5 and -7.

= (-5) × (-7)

= 35

Therefore, the product of two negative rational numbers can not be negative. Hence, the statement that 'the product will be negative' is FALSE.

garri49 [273]
Mary's backpack: 25% of 65 = 0.25 * 65 = 16.25; 65 - 16.25 = $48.75
Roberto's backpack: 30% of 75 = 0.3 * 75 = 22.5; 75 - 22.5 = $52.5

Mary's backpack was a better buy because it was cheaper.
