Alternative Proof  First of all we will prove:  (−x)y=x(−y)=−xy  We know that  x+(−x)=0  (x+(−x))y=0y=0  So         xy+(−x)y=0  Also    xy+(−xy)=0  ∴                (−x)y=−xy  Similarly  x(−y)=−xy  Hence   (−x)y=x(−y)=−xy     (−x)(−y)+(−xy)     =(−x)(−y)+(−x)y=(−x){−y+y}  =(−x)(0)=0  So  (−x)(−y)+(−xy)=0  Also  xy+(−xy)=0  ∴ (−x)(−y)=xy  Rasheed Soomro

i dont know if it all right but is a try :D  we have  −x=−1×x=(−1)×x  −y=−1×y=(−1)×y  (−x)(−y)=(−1×x)(−1×y)  by comugative  (−x)(−y)=(−1)×(−1)xy  we have by distributive that  (−1)×(−1)+1×(−1)=(−1+1)×(−1)  (−1)×(−1)+1×(−1)=0  (−1)×(−1)=−−1=1  so  (−x)(−y)=(−1)×(−1)xy=xy
idontknowifitallrightbutisatry:Dwehavex=1×x=(1)×xy=1×y=(1)×y(x)(y)=(1×x)(1×y)bycomugative(x)(y)=(1)×(1)xywehavebydistributivethat(1)×(1)+1×(1)=(1+1)×(1)(1)×(1)+1×(1)=0(1)×(1)=1=1so(x)(y)=(1)×(1)xy=xy
