Answer:

(x - 10)(x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1- Find 2 numbers that multiply to be 50.

10 × 5

-10 × -5

25 × 2

-25 × -2

All these multiply to get 50.

But the numbers must also add up to be -15.

Step 2- Find the 2 numbers that also add up to be -15.

10 + 5 = 15

-10 + -5 = -15

25 + 2 = 27

-25 + -2 = -27

The correct equation would be - 10 + -5

The 2 number you would use when you factor would be -10 and -5

Step 3- Write the equation

You can write the equation as (x - 10)(x - 5)

Or you can also write it as (x - 5)(x - 10)

Answer:

(x - 10)(x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Well to factor X^2-15x+50

we need to find 2 numbers that multiply to get 50 and add to get -15.

-5 * -10 = 50

-5 + -10

x*x = x^2

Factored (x - 10)(x - 5)

<em>Hope this helps :)</em>

The least common multiple of two numbers is 60, and one of the numbers is 7 less than the other number. What are the numbers?
storchak [24]
Step One - List the factors of 60.
Step Two - Locate the factors that are seven apart from each other.

Factors of 60:
1 × 60
2 × 30
3 × 20
4 × 15
5 × 12
6 × 10

60 - 1 = 59
30 - 2 = 28
20 - 3 = 17
15 - 4 = 11
12 - 5 = 7
10 - 6 = 4

5 is 7 less than 12, and 60 is their least common multiple.

Answer: 5 and 12
