Let the numbers be x and y
According to the data : xy=-15 and x+y=-7
xy=-15
x+y=-7

y=-7-x
x(-x-7)=-15

y=-7-x
-x^2-7x=-15

y=-7-x
x^2+7x-15=0

y=-7-x
x=(-7±sqrt(7*7+4*15))/2

y=-7-x
x=(-7±sqrt(109<span>))/2
</span>
Goes to two systems.
 1) 
y=-7-x
x=(-7+sqrt(109<span>))/2
</span>

y=-7+3.5-sqrt(109<span>))/2
</span>x=(-7+sqrt(109<span>))/2
</span>
y=-3.5-sqrt(109<span>))/2
</span>x=(-7+sqrt(109<span>))/2
</span>
2)
y=-7-x
x=(-7-sqrt(109<span>))/2
</span>
y=-7+3.5+sqrt(109))/2
x=(-7-sqrt(109))/2

y=-3.5+sqrt(109))/2
x=(-7-sqrt(109<span>))/2</span>

There are 534 car parking spaces but 478 spaces are occupied,round to the nearest 10
suter [353]

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

If 478 out of 534 parking spaces are taken, then you will be <u>subtracting</u>. When you subtract 534 and 478 (534-478), then you get 54. Remember 5 and up round to 10. 4 and below round to 0. So 56 rounds to 60 because 6 is greater than 5.

Hope it helps!

Well if the perimeter is 36in, then divide by 6 sides (the prefix hex- means six) to get 6. Don't forget your unit of measurement to be 6in of each side. It would be nice to have the picture though so if you could suply me with that it would help out.
