Sure, let's break down the calculation step-by-step:
1. Evaluate the product of the first two numbers:
[tex]\[ (-10) \times (-4) = 40 \][/tex]
2. Next, multiply the result by the third number:
[tex]\[ 40 \times (-4) = -160 \][/tex]
3. Finally, multiply the result by the fourth number:
[tex]\[ -160 \times 1 = -160 \][/tex]
So, the product of [tex]\((-10) \times (-4) \times (-4) \times 1\)[/tex] is [tex]\(-160\)[/tex].
The correct answer is:
(A) [tex]\(-160\)[/tex].
