35

Answer 1

35 is the answer I remember my brother telling me that two negitives always makes a positive no matter the symbol

Step-by-step explanation: 7 x 5 = 35 that is really all you have to do. but this is a random tip always remember that two negitives equal a positve also when you add positve to negitive it goes right so say you have -5 + 5 that would equal zero. when you add negitive and negitve numbers it will have a negitive sum

Answer 2

35

Explanation:

A negative number multiplied by a negative number is positive. Multiplication is repeditive addition.

(-7) * (-5) = -(-7 + -7 + -7 + -7 + -7) or -( -5 + -5 + -5 + -5 + -5 + -5 + -5 ) = 35.
