Evaluate -3(8). I know the answer is -24 but I don’t know who to work it out, can someone please help me

-24

Step-by-step explanation: When you're asked to multiply

positives and negatives together, the rules are simple.

positive times a positive is a positive

positive times a negative is a negative

negative times a positive is a negative

negative times a negative is a positive

One way that I think will help you is to think

about the problem in terms of the signs.

If the signs are the same, the product will always be positive.

For example, (+3) · (+6) = +18 and (-6) · (-2) = +12.

If the signs are different, the product is negative.

So (+6) · (-4) is -24 and (-10) · (+5) is -50.

So don't get caught up on the signs.

Do the problem first, then determine if the

signs are the same or if they are different.

8121 because

130,000 divided by 16 is 8121

first anwser choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the greater/less or equal to symbol (> or < with the line at the bottom) is a closed/filled in circle.

-5c + 2 _< _27

subtract from both sides by 2

-5c _< _ 27

divide both sides by -5

c _< _ 5.4

flip the inequality sign

c _> _5.4

the only possible answer that would match the simplified inequality is the first answer choice
