Answer: 440
Q3: Verify the following:
i. (-14)×(-8) = (-8)×(-14)
LHS = (-14)×(-8) = 112
RHS = (-8)×(-14) = 112
Since LHS = RHS, Hence Verified.
ii. {(-7)×5}×(-6) = (-7)×{5×(-6)}
LHS = (-7×5)×(-6) = (-35)×(-6) = 210
RHS = (-7)×(5×-6) = (-7)×(-30) = 210
Since LHS = RHS, Hence Verified.
iii. (-10)×{(-7)+(-9)} = {(-10)×(-7)} + {(-10)×(-9)}
LHS = (-10)×(-7 + -9) = (-10)×(-16) = 160
RHS = (-10×-7) + (-10×-9) = 70 + 90 = 160
Since LHS = RHS, Hence Verified.

Q9: The product of two integers is -120. If one number is 15, find the other.
Let the other number be x.
15 × x = -120
x = -120 ÷ 15
Answer: x = -8
