Ivan and Polina have each drawn a conclusion about multiplying negative fractions. Ivan: The product of an even number of negative fractions is always positive. Polina: The product of an odd number of negative fractions is always negative. Whose conclusion is correct? Ivan only Polina only both Ivan and Polina neither Ivan or Polina

Both are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

To check the validity of their statements, we shall be using direct examples

For Ivan , we can have an example of his assertion as follows;

-1/2 * -1/3 = 1/6

For Polina, we can have

-1/2 * -1/3 * -1/4 = -1/24

We can see from the above that both of them got their opinions correctly as there are no exceptions to the above

38.5

step-by-step explanation:

lets say, first number = r

second number = 3r+7

total = 49

(r)+(3r+7)= 49

4r+7 = 49

4r = 42

r = 42/4

r= 10.5

3r+7 = 3(10.5)+7 = 38.5

hope this
