Respuesta :

it is b:positive, because the products (3)(–3) and (–2)(4) are negative, and the product of two negative numbers is negative

Answer:

The correct option is (b).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is :

[tex]x=(3)(-3)(-2)(4)[/tex]

We know that the product of two negative numbers is positive while the product of one negative and one positive number is negative. This concept will be used here.

In this case, there are two negative i.e. (-3) and (-2) and two positive numbers i.e. (3) and (4)

So, (-3)(-2) = 6 and (3)(4) = 12

As a result, the product of given expression is (6)(12) = 72 i.e. Positive, because the products (3)(–3) and (–2)(4) are positive, and the product of two positive numbers is positive.
