Without multiplying, determine the sign of the product (āˆ’247,634)(183,758).

The sign of the product is positive because a negative multiplied by a positive is a positive.

The sign of the product is negative because a negative multiplied by a positive is a negative.

The sign of the product is negative because the first number is negative.

The sign of the product is positive because the second number is positive.

Respuesta :

I believe the correct answer isĀ The sign of the product is negative because a negative multiplied by a positive is a negative.
However, the third answer:
The sign of the product is negative because the first number is negativeĀ is not necessarily incorrect.
Even so, I think the second choice (
The sign of the product is negative because a negative multiplied by a positive is a negative.)Ā is more likely to be the answer they wanted.Ā
