Answer:

Negative

Step-by-step explanation:

Since multiplication of two negative numbers is always positive, we get

x *x =x^2 and -x*-x =x^2

This gives us an idea about square root

A positive number can be expressed

as a*a and -a*-a

Thus there will be two square roots one positive which is called the principal square root

The other number will be the same in value but with a negative sign.

Definition: <span>The square root of a number is another number, which on multiplying with itself, will give the original number.
</span>
Every positive number has two square roots. One square root is positive, while the other is exactly same, but negative. The positive square root of a number is called its principle square root. For example, 10 and -10 are the two square roots of 100, but 10 is called the principle square root. 

Hence e<span>very positive number has two square roots , a principal square root and its opposite negative.</span>

90 divided by 2= 45 so x=45
2•45=90
So, for the next one y=60 because 90+90=180

Please Help!<br><br> What is a cubic polynomial function in standard form with zeros –5, –1, and –5?
yan [13]
FIRST. find the factors:
X=-5 --> (X + 5) = 0
x = 1--> (X - 1) = 0
x =3 --> (x - 3) = 0
3
NEXT, multiply all the factors:
(x + 5) (x - 1) (x - 3) = 0
-> X3 + x2 - 17x +15 = 0
-> f(x) = x3 + x2 - 17x +15 or
y=x3 + x2
17x + 15

SOLVE ALL THESE EQUATION BY USING THE METHOD SUBSTITUTION ALGEBRAICALLY HERE'S ARE ALL THE EQUATION:
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

See below ~

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Question 1</u>

  • -7x - y = -1
  • y = 8x + 16

⇒ -7x - (8x + 16) = -1

⇒ -7x - 8x - 16 = -1

⇒ -15x = 15

⇒ x = -1

⇒ y = 8(-1) + 16 = 8

⇒ Solution = <u>(-1, 8)</u>

<u></u>

<u>Question 2</u>

  • 3x + 4y = 0
  • y = -3x - 18

⇒ 3x + 4(-3x - 18) = 0

⇒ 3x - 12x - 72 = 0

⇒ -9x = 72

⇒ x = -8

⇒ y = -3(-8) - 18 = 6

⇒ Solution = <u>(-8, 6)</u>

<u>Question 3</u> (not clear)

<u>Question 4</u>

  • -8x - 7y = 0
  • y = 6x

⇒ -8x - 7(6x) = 0

⇒ -8x - 42x = 0

⇒ -50x = 0

⇒ x = 0

⇒ y = 6(0) = 0

⇒ Solution = <u>(0, 0)</u>

<u>Question 8</u>

  • 2x - 6y = -14
  • y = -5x - 19

⇒ 2x - 6(-5x - 19) = -14

⇒ 2x + 30x + 114 = -14

⇒ 32x = -128

⇒ x = -4

⇒ y = -5(-4) - 19 = 1

⇒ Solution = <u>(-4, 1)</u>
