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>

Lim x tends to π÷2 , then what is the value of (tanx + cotx) ÷ ( tanx - cotx)​
KiRa [710]

(tan(<em>x</em>) + cot(<em>x</em>)) / (tan(<em>x</em>) - cot(<em>x</em>)) = (tan²(<em>x</em>) + 1) / (tan²(<em>x</em>) - 1)

… = (sin²(<em>x</em>) + cos²(<em>x</em>)) / (sin²(<em>x</em>) - cos²(<em>x</em>))

… = -1/cos(2<em>x</em>)

Then as <em>x</em> approaches <em>π</em>/2, the limit is -1/cos(2•<em>π</em>/2) = -sec(<em>π</em>) = 1.

Ben ran 3/10 of a mile. Shelly ran 8/10 of a mile. How many more miles did Shelly run than Ben? A) 11/10 B) 11/20 C) 5/0 D) 5/10
attashe74 [19]

Hello there! Shelly ran D) 5/10 more miles than Ben.

To find the difference between the two runner's distances, subtract the smaller distance from the greater distance.

8/10 - 3/10 = 5/10

Since there is a difference of 5/10, this means Shelly ran 5/1 more miles.

I hope this helps, & have a great rest of your day! :)
