Question 1051332: Write a word problem that you can solve using the equation (+4)x(-8)

What equation? (+4)x(-8) is not an equation. In fact, it is just nonsense unless you mean "x" to be the multiplication sign. Even then it is only the product of two integers and still not an equation. An equation has an equals sign in it, like this "=", hence the name.
