first number: x

second number: y

Sum: x + y = -9   ⇒   y = -x - 9

Product: xy = 20  ⇒ x(-x - 9) = 20

                                 -x² - 9x = 20

                                          0 = x² + 9x + 20

                                           0 = (x + 4)(x + 5)

                           0 = x + 4      or     0 = x + 5

                           x = -4           or      x = -5

y = -x - 9  ⇒  y = -(-4) - 9 = -5    or    y = -(-5) - 9 = -4

Answer: -4, -5

What’s the correct answer?
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

the triangle above is an isoceles triangle

therefore the base angles are equal

So we have:

X + X + 38= 180

2x = 180-38

2x = 142

X = 71°
