Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we can use an equation finding the average of the siblings'ages.

$\frac{14 + 12 + x}{3} = 14 \\ \ 14 + 12 + x = 42 \\ x = 42 - 14 - 12 \\ x = 16$

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points }

M(\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\qquad 
N(\stackrel{x_2}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{2})

% coordinates of midpoint

Find the TWO integers whos product is -12 and whose sum is 1<br>

Deffense [45]

Answer:

$\rm Numbers = 4 \ and \ -3.$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

The sum of two numbers is 1 .

The product of the nos . is 12 .

And we need to find out the numbers. So let us take ,

First number be x

Second number be 1-x .

According to first condition :-

$\rm\implies 1st \ number * 2nd \ number= -12\\\\\rm\implies x(1-x)=-12\\\\\rm\implies x - x^2=-12\\\\\rm\implies x^2-x-12=0\\\\\rm\implies x^2-4x+3x-12=0\\\\\rm\implies x(x-4)+3(x-4)=0\\\\\rm\implies (x-4)(x+3)=0\\\\\rm\implies\boxed{\red{\rm x = 4 , -3 }}$

Hence the numbers are 4 and -3
