Question

What can you tell about two integers when their quotient is positive? negative? zero?

When the quotient of two integers is positive the ____

When the quotient of two integers is negative the _____

When the quotient of two integers is zero the _____

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

MULTIPLICATION

RULE 1: The product of a positive integer and a negative integer is negative.

RULE 2: The product of two positive integers is positive.

RULE 3: The product of two negative integers is positive.

Examples:

Rule 1: 1. (+4) x (-2) = -8 2. (-2) x (+5) = -10

Rule 2: 1. (+6) x (+8) = +48 2. (+6) x (+2) = +12

Rule 3: 1. (-6) x (-8) = +48 2. (-2) x (-4) = +8

DIVISION

RULE 1: The quotient of a positive integer and a negative integer is negative.

RULE 2: The quotient of two positive integers is positive.

RULE 3: The quotient of two negative integers is positive.
