The numbers:  x, y
x·y=-14
x+y=5    ⇒    y=5-x
Substitute y in the first equation by y from second one
x·(5-x)=-14
5x-x²=-14
-x²+5x+14=0
-x²-2x+7x+14=0
-x(x+2)+7(x+2)=0
(x+2)(-x+7)=0
Product is 0 if one of factors is 0
x+2=0      or        -x+7=0
x=-2         or         -x=-7
x=-2         or           x=7
Now back to the equation y=5-x
y=5-(-2)    or     y=5-7
y=7           or     y=-2

The numbers are -2 and 7

15 points<br> I really need help with this and it’s due soon please help me and explain.
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

A square's diagonal has a length equal to √(2) times the length of its sides. So if the side length is <em>x</em>, then the diagonal is such that

√(2) <em>x</em> = 10 cm

→   <em>x</em> = 10/√(2) cm ≈ 7.07 cm

The perimeter of a square is 4 times its side length, so the perimeter is

4 (10/√(2) cm) = 40/√(2) cm ≈ 28.3 cm

which makes 28.4 cm the closest answer.
