Answer:

-25, -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's write a system of equations. Lets call x and y the numbers, where x is 5 times y.

x + y = -30

x = 5y

Plugging this in, we get:

5y + y = -30

y = -5

Since y = -5, we can plug this in, and see that x = -25.

Answer:

-5 & -25

Step-by-step explanation:

1st number=x

2nd number=5x

x+5x=-30

6x=-30

x=-5

5x=-25

So the numbers are -5 & -25

How to factor x^2-2x-15

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

(x - 5)(x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 2x - 15

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 15) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 2)

The factors are - 5 and + 3, since

- 5 × 3 = - 15 and - 5 + 3 = - 2, thus

(x - 5)(x + 3) ← in factored form

Find the product of z1 and z2, where z1 = 7(cos 40° + i sin 40°) and z2 = 6(cos 145° + i sin 145°).

Oduvanchick [21]

For two complex numbers $z_1=re^{i\theta}=r(\cos\theta+i\sin\theta)$ and $z_2=se^{i\varphi}=s(\cos\varphi+i\sin\varphi)$ , the product is

$z_1z_2=rse^{i(\theta+\varphi)}=rs(\cos(\theta+\varphi)+i\sin(\theta+\varphi))$

That is, you multiply the moduli and add the arguments. You have $z_1=7e^{i40^\circ}$ and $z_2=6e^{i145^\circ}$ , so the product is

$z_1z_2=7\times6(\cos(40^\circ+145^\circ)+i\sin(40^\circ+145^\circ)=42(\cos185^\circ+i\sin185^\circ)=42e^{i185^\circ}$
