ANSWER


b)-3

Step-by-step explanation

We want to find the value of the expression:


(xy)/(2)

for:


\begin{gathered} x=-1 \\ y=6 \end{gathered}

To do this, substitute the values of x and y into the expression.

That is:


\begin{gathered} ((-1)(6))/(2) \\ \Rightarrow(-6)/(2) \\ \Rightarrow-3 \end{gathered}

The answer is option b.
