Is the product of 7 positive numbers and 6 negative numbers a positive or negative number?
positive
How would you Explain how you would decide whether the product of three numbers is positive or negative?
If all three numbers are positive then the product obviously has to be positive. If TWO of the three numbers are negative, then the product is also positive. But if exactly ONE of the three numbers is negative or if all THREE are negative, then the product must be negative. In general, a product of numbers is negative if an ODD NUMBER of the terms is negative.
What two numbers whose product is negative 18 and whose sum is 3?
6 and -3.
What is the maximum product of two numbers if their sum is -12?
It would be 36 since a negative times a negative is positive. A negative times a positive is negative.-6*-6=36-7*-5=35-5*-7=35...
What are rational numbers but not negative numbers between negative 6 and positive 6?
They are the infinite number of rational numbers between 0 and +6

What is the product of negative 4 and negative 6?
what is the product of negative 4 and negative 6?
When 2 4 6 or 8 numbers are multiplied the product has a negative sign?
The answer will depend on the signs of the numbers being multiplied.
What two numbers whose product is negative 18 and whose sum is 3?
6 and -3.
How do you multiply a negative number by a positive number?
You multiply the numbers just like you would normally except that the product will have a negative sign. Example: -6 X 5 = -30. When you multiply a negative number and a positive number, the product will always be negative. Multiplying two positive numbers or two negative numbers will give you positive products.

If the product of two numbers is positive then the two numbers must both be positive?
No! If one number is negative and the positive is greater than it's interval (positive version [e.g. the interval of -6 is 6]), then the product will very well be positive. In theory, of course. Sorry, tenth grader speaking... Small error here; product is the result of multiplication. The answer above is correct for a sum, but not a product. The rule for a product is even simpler than for a sum :- If the two numbers have the same signs (both positive or both negative) then the result will be positive. If the numbers have different signs the result will be negative.
What is the product of negative 3 and negative 6?
18
What two numbers sum to negative one but have a product of negative six?
The answer is -3 and 2 as -3 x 2 = -6 and 2 + (-3)=2-3=(-1)
3 negative and 6 positive numbers are multiplied together. the sign of the product is?
Negative. Positives always give positive sign, two of the negatives cancel out, leave one negative sign.
