Solution

Sure, let's break down each expression:

  1. -8(-9): The product of two negative numbers is a positive number. So, -8 times -9 equals 72.

  2. -8(-9)(2): Here, we have the product of two negative numbers (-8 and -9) which is 72, and then we multiply it by 2. The result is 144.

  3. -8(-9)(-2): Here, we have the product of two negative numbers (-8 and -9) which is 72, and then we multiply it by -2. The result is -144.

  4. -8(-9)(-2)(-1): Here, we have the product of two negative numbers (-8 and -9) which is 72, then we multiply it by -2 which gives -144, and finally we multiply it by -1. The result is 144.

So, the expression that results in a negative answer is -8(-9)(-2).
