You have to match up if the answers from column A with the choices from Column B like if if the problem comes out to be negative or positive

Hello! We can tell if it's positive or negative by the words that are used to described the thing. For instance, 1 has destroyed as your key word and 2 has heated. Destroyed is a negative and Heated is a positive. Is it a little clearer now? Can you do the last two?

OpenStudy (winsteria):

Okay so 3 is positive? And 4 is negative?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Close!! 4 is correct but 3 isn't. Try again! Hint: Your keyword in 3 is descends.

OpenStudy (winsteria):

Ohh so 3 is negative?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Correct! Nice job!
