Ivan Daugherty · Answer 1

The sign of the product will be positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

You are going to end with a positive result because there are two positive numbers and two negative numbers.

When you multiply two negatives, - 3 and - 2, you get a positive.

When you multiply two positives, 3 and 4, you get a positive.

Multiply the positive result from the two negatives with the positive result from the two positive and you get another positive.

More proof:

(3) (-3) (-2) (4) = (3) (4) (-3) (-2)

3 * 4 = 12

- 3 * ( - 2) = 6

12 * 6 = 72

Positive

Explanation;

Positive, because the products (3) (-3) and (-2) (4) are negative and the product of two negative numbers is positive.

When 3 and - 3 are multiplied together they give a value of - 9 which is a negative value and the product of (-2) and (4) will also give - 8 which is also a negative number. Also note that the product of two negative number will give a positive number as such the product of the resulting values which is - 9 and - 8 will give + 72 (which is a positive number).
