Answer:

-3(-2)+3 is greater than 3(-4)+9.

Explanation:

First, we have to solve.

1) -3(-2)+3 Solve left to right. -3(-2)=6

6+3 Add. 6+3=9

9

2) 3(-4)+9 Solve left to right. 3(-4)=-12

-12+9 Add. -12+9=-3

-3

9 is greater than 3. So, -3(-2)+3 is greater than 3(-4)+9.

Hope this helped!! Have a great day :D

Answer:

Hello!!! Princess Sakura here ^^

Explanation:

First we have to solve them to make it easier to compare them.

So...


-3(-2)+3=9\\3(-4)+9=-3

Now we now that the first one is 9 and the second one is -3. So obviously the positive number has to be greater than the negative number, so....


9>-3
