How does multiplying the sine function by a number less than zero affect the graph?
The same as multiplying any other function by a negative number - after multiplying, positive numbers will become negative numbers, and vice versa.
How can you go from being negative to being positive?
well: Multiplication: for example... -1 X -1= 1(positive) so a negative times negative is always come out positive. Same thing as dividing too. Example: -x + 2= 0 -x= -2 then buy multiplying by -1 (-x= -2) -1 x= 2 Addition and subtractions: 5- (-2)= because the negative is subtracted it become positive 5 + 2= 7 5 + -2= 3 become positive, because negative 2 is added to a higher positive number. hope this answers your question
Why multiplication of negative numbers equals positive?
When you multiply any number by a negative number you reverse its sign. So positive numbers become negative, and negative numbers become positive. That is the meaning of negative multiplication; it is reversal. This is similar to the way that adding a negative number has the same effect as subtracting a positive number. Negative is the opposite of positive.
