let the two numbers be x and y
From the first sentence,
xy=24
x+y=10
Then make y in equation 2 the subject of the formular and substitute in equation 1
x+y=10
y=10-x
substituting in equation 2
x(10-x)=24
open the bracket
10x-x^2=24
=-x^2+10x=24
Transfer the constant to the left hand side
=-x^2+10x-24=0
Then factorise completely

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The interior angles of a heptagon add up to 5*180 = 900
So
x + 143 + 116 + 135 + 135 + 116 + 155 = 900 Add up the known angles
x + 800 = 900 Subtract 800 from both sides
x + 800 - 800 = 900 - 800 Combine
x = 100
Answer: a) Yes b) Polygon ABCD ~ Polygon EFGH c) JKLM is 3x bigger than polygon ABCD
Step-by-step explanation:
(for part c)
JM= 36
AD= 12
36/12= 3
JKLM is 3x bigger than polygon ABCD
