Question

Does the given expression result in an answer of −24? Select 3 that apply.

A. −189 ⋅ 363
B. (−3)(−2)(4)
C. 12(−6)(8)
D. (7.5)(−3.2)

Answer 1

The expressions that result in an answer of -24 are (-3)(-2)(4), 12(-6)(8), and (7.5)(-3.2).

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine whether the given expressions result in an answer of -24, we need to evaluate each expression.

1. A. -189 ⋅ 363 = -68,907. The answer is not -24.
2. B. (-3)(-2)(4) = 24, which is not -24.
3. C. 12(-6)(8) = -576, which is also not -24.
4. D. (7.5)(-3.2) = -24, and this expression does result in an answer of -24.

Therefore, the correct options are B, C, and D.
