Xy = -150
x + y = 5

     x + y = 5
x - x + y = -x + 5
           y = -x + 5

                                                       xy = -150
                                             x(-x + 5) = -150
                                         x(-x) + x(5) = -150
                                               -x² + 5x = -150
                                     -x² + 5x + 150 = 0
                       -1(x²) - 1(-5x) - 1(-150) = 0
                                  -1(x² - 5x - 150) = 0
                                               -1            -1
                                        x² - 5x - 150 = 0
                                        x = -(-5) ± √((-5)² - 4(1)(-150))
                                                                2(1)
                                        x = 5 ± √(25 + 600)
                                                         2
                                        x = 5 ± √(625)
                                                     2
                                        x = 5 ± 25
                                                 2
                                        x = 2.5 ± 12.5
                                        x = 2.5 + 12.5    or    x = 2.5 - 12.5
                                        x = 15          or          x = -10

    x + y = 5
  15 + y = 5
- 15      - 15
          y = -10
    (x, y) = (15, -10)

            or

    x + y = 5
 -10 + y = 5
+ 10    + 10
           y = 15
    (x, y) = (-10, 15)

The two numbers that add up to 5 and multiply to -150 are 15 and -10.

note: 5≠20


also, if you multiply both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you flip te direction of the inequality sign

example: 3<5, multiply by -1, -3>-5


so given

-2<3

multiply both ides by -5 and fip sign

remember that (-)(-)=(-) and (+)(-)=(-)(+)=(-)

The sum of 2 trinomials is 7x^2 - 5x + 4. If one of the trinomials is 3x^2 + 2x - 1, then what is the other trinomial?
Hunter-Best [27]
We can subtract the sum of the two trinomials by one of the trinomials.
(7x²-5x+4)-(3x²+2x-1)
Let's look at each part.
7x²-3x²=4x²
-5x-2x=-7x
4-(-1)=5
So, the trinomial should look like:
4x²-7x+5
So, C. 4x²-7x+5 is the other trinomial.

How do you solve this problem
lora16 [44]
X² = 17

To simplify this, you need to find the square root of x², which is x, and the square root of 17.

x = √17
Also remember that when you are using square root, the answer can be either positive or negative.

x = +/-√17 ≈ +/- 4.12

How can undefinable terms be used to create precise mathematical definitions?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

This is done by stating descriptions of these terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Undefinable terms are terms with no formal definitions. Formal definitions are obtained when specific words are used to define a term. In mathematics, specifically, Geometry words like line, point, and plane have no definite definition, So descriptions are used to identify them.

For example, in describing a point, we note that a point has no dimensions, it is usually denoted with a capital letter, and it indicates a position. Also in a coordinate plane, it is denoted with descriptions such as  (u,v). Corresponding descriptions are given of other undefinable terms.
