Positive, because the products (−2)(4) and (−6)(−3) are positive, and the product of two positive numbers is positive

Negative, because the product (−2)(4) is positive and the product (−6)(−3) is negative, and the product of a positive number and a negative number is negative

Negative, because the product (−2)(4) is negative and the product (−6)(−3) is positive, and the product of a negative number and a positive number is a negative number

Answer 1

hope this helps :)

Answer 2

Option 4 is the correct answer.

Explanation:

We need to find the sign of the product.

The given expression is

`(-2)* (4)* (-6)* (-3)`

In multiplication we have a rule of signs

(+) multiplied (+) = (+)

(-) multiplied (-) = (+)

(+) multiplied (-) = (-)

(-) multiplied (+) = (-)

So, we can evaluate it as:

`(-2)* (4)* (-6)* (-3)\\=(-8)* (18)\\= -144`

Hence, the correct option is option 4 that is

The product is negative as product of -2 and 4 is negative and product of -6 and -2 is positive. the product of positive and negative gives a negative.
