Let "a" and "b" be the two numbers
So a*b=-8 and a+b=-7
Therefore S=-7 and P=-8
Using (x^2)-S+P=0 => (x^2)-(-7)+(-8)=0 => (x^2)+7-8=0
By factorizing we get (x+8)(x-1)=0
So a can be either -8 or 1 and b can be 1 or -8
Meaning that the two numbers are -8 and 1.
Answer:
dy/dx = -1/
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 1/x
dy/dx = d/dx(1/x)
=> dy/dx = d/dx(
)
=> dy/dx = -
=> dy/dx = -1/
Let D be dogs and C be cats
<em>dogs, d, is initially five less than twice the number of cats, c</em>
D + 5 = 2C
<em>If she decides to add three more of each, the ratio of cats to dogs will be</em>
D + 8 = 2C + 3
<em>Could Bea's Pet Shop initially have 15 cats and 20 dogs?</em>
Simply plug in the numbers
20 + 5 = 2(15)
This is clearly not true: 25 does not equal 30
