Answer:

A(-a)*(-1)=(-a)

Explanation:

Anything multiplied by 0 is 0. Therefore, option B is correct.

Option A is wrong because when multiplying two negatives you should get a positive not a negative.

Anything multiplied by 0 is 0. Therefore, option B is correct

Option C is correct because a negative times a positive gives a positive.

Option D is correct because you can't solve for different times being multiplied you can only combine like terms therefore your answer will equal the same result here.
