Question

1. Write a function called timesTen that returns back to the caller the value passed into the function multiplied by 10. If the value passed into the function is negative, the function also returns the string "negative". (If information you need to complete this function is missing, complete it on your own making reasonable assumption(s). State your assumptions.) (10 points)
