Let's represent the two numbers by x and y. Then xy=60. The smaller number here is x=y-7.
Then (y-7)y=60, or y^2 - 7y - 60 = 0. Use the quadratic formula to (1) determine whether y has real values and (2) to determine those values if they are real:
discriminant = b^2 - 4ac; here the discriminant is (-7)^2 - 4(1)(-60) = 191. Because the discriminant is positive, this equation has two real, unequal roots, which are
-(-7) + sqrt(191)
y = -------------------------
-2(1)
and
-(-7) - sqrt(191)
y = ------------------------- = 3.41 (approximately)
-2(1)
Unfortunately, this doesn't make sense, since the LCM of two numbers is generally an integer.
Try thinking this way: If the LCM is 60, then xy = 60. What would happen if x=5 and y=12? Is xy = 60? Yes. Is 5 seven less than 12? Yes.
This is a normal distribution with a Mean: 14 g/dL and a Standard deviation: 1 g/dL.
A ) Hemoglobin levels less than 13:
13 = 14 - 1 = Mean - 1 SD
0.16 x 200 = 32
Answer: 32 people.
B ) Hemoglobin levels greater than 14 :
0.50 x 200 = 100
Answer: 100 people.
Answer:
The measurement which Jane finds to be 10 meters is the length of the banner.
Step-by-step explanation:
The measurement of 10 meters which Jane found after measuring how long the banner is before painting is the LENGTH of the banner.
This is clear from the unit of what she finds (meters). It only indicates the measurement of one part of the banner, even though a banner has two parts, the length and width.
It is possible to find the AREA, or PERIMETER, or LENGTH.
But what she finds is the LENGTH of the banner. If it was Area or Perimeter, the unit would have been square meters.

Rule Example
+(+) Two like signs become a positive sign 3+(+2) = 3 + 2 = 5
−(−) 6−(−3) = 6 + 3 = 9
+(−) Two unlike signs become a negative sign 7+(−2) = 7 − 2 = 5
−(+) 8−(+2) = 8 − 2 = 6
draw in the line, here are the points
