Answer:
y=mx+b
y=-1x-4
y=2x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Pull out like factors :
-3x - 6 = -3 • (x + 2)
Solve : -3 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
Solve : x+2 = 0
Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation :
x = -2
