Solve both equations for x:

2x+7 = 3

2x = -4

x = -2

Plug x into the equation which contains b:

b(-2) -10 = -2

-2b = 8

b = -4


Answer:

b = -4

x = -2

Find the TWO integers whos product is -12 and whose sum is 1<br>​
julsineya [31]

Answer:

\rm Numbers = 4 \ and \ -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

The sum of two numbers is 1 .

The product of the nos . is 12 .

And we need to find out the numbers. So let us take ,

First number be x

Second number be 1-x .

According to first condition :-

\rm\implies 1st \ number * 2nd \ number= -12\\\\\rm\implies x(1-x)=-12\\\\\rm\implies x - x^2=-12\\\\\rm\implies x^2-x-12=0\\\\\rm\implies x^2-4x+3x-12=0\\\\\rm\implies x(x-4)+3(x-4)=0\\\\\rm\implies (x-4)(x+3)=0\\\\\rm\implies\boxed{\red{\rm x = 4 , -3 }}

Hence the numbers are 4 and -3

2 rectangle shaped
1) Length = 160 mi ; Width = 40 mi
2) Length = 440 mi - 160 mi ; Width = 240 mi - 70 mi

1 triangle shape
1) base = 70 mi ; height = 440 mi - 160 mi

Area Rectangle 1 = 160 mi * 40 mi = 6,400 mi²
Area Rectangle 2 = 280 mi * 170 mi = 47,600 mi²
Area Triangle 1 = ((440 mi - 160 mi) * 70mi)/2 = (280mi * 70mi)/2 = 9,800 mi²

Total Area = 6,400 mi² + 47,600 mi² + 9,800 mi² = <span>63,800 mi²</span>
