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>

O A PQR is reflected over the x-axis. What are the<br> coordinates of O'?
topjm [15]

Answer:

(8,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

When reflecting something across the X axis the y axis coordinate is the one that will change to put the position further up or down.  In this case we are moving it down to the same amount below the axis that it is now above it.  That means that since it is currently 2 above the X axis it would then be 2 below the X axis making it at -2 so the coordinates would be (8,-2)

I hope this helps and please don't hesitate to ask if there is anything still unclear!

What ate the domain and range of f(x)(1/6)x+2?
never [62]

Answer:

Domain : all real numbers

Range: All numbers greater than 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The shark. (Haha, I'm sorry.)

There are no restrictions on the x. X can be any real number.

The range, however, does have restrictions. The range has to be a number greater than 0.

Why?

Because any number that you put in for x won't make the range less than 2. If you put in zero for x, the range is 2.
