Question

1. solve for x.

x = (-2)(6)(-4)
a x = 36
b x = 0
c x = 48
d x = -48

Explanation:

Step1: Multiply the first two numbers

Multiply \((-2)\) and \(6\). We know that a negative number multiplied by a positive number gives a negative result. So, \((-2)\times(6)= -12\).

Step2: Multiply the result by the third number

Now, multiply \(-12\) by \((-4)\). A negative number multiplied by a negative number gives a positive result. So, \((-12)\times(-4)= 48\). So, \(x = 48\).

Answer:

C. \(x = 48\)
