        Thurs Sept 23

        Homework:
        • finish "Quiz show" worksheet
        • finish -10x3 worksheet
        Rules for multiplying integers:
        1. positive x positive = positive
        2. negative x positive = negative
        3. positive x negative = negative
        4. negative x negative = positive
        These are the same rules we've been using for double signs. 
        A quick trick:  if the signs are the same, the answer is positive; if the signs are different, the answer is negative.
