Answer:

Positive 28

Explanation:

When We Multiply (-7) With (2) We get -14. That 14 Is negative An Negative number multiplied by a positive number Equals an negative number.

Rule

Pairs of numbers that are the same sign combine to make a positive product.

(Positive) ⋅ (Positive) = Positive

(Negative) ⋅ (Negative) = Positive

Rule

Pairs of numbers that are opposite signs combine to make a negative product.

(Positive) ⋅ (Negative) = Negative

(Negative) ⋅ (Positive) = Negative

After we have (-14) we still need to multiply it by (-2) Which gives us -28 But WAIT. 2 Negative numbers in a problem will result in a positive number being your answer if its the last part of the problem!

Hope this helps!
