Answer:
3000
Step-by-step explanation:
1312.50+625+1062.5=3000
We can solve this by setting up 2 equations. We can use any letters like. For now, I'll use x and y.
So now we know that x - y = 0.7 and x + y = 1.
Now we can eliminate one of the letters by adding or subtracting one equation from the other. I am going to eliminate y by adding the two together (the y and the -y cancel).
This gives us 2x = 1.7, and so x = 1.7 ÷ 2 = 0.85
Finally, we can substitute x for 0.85 back into one of the original equations to figure out what y equals. I'm going to use x + y = 1.
So now we have 0.85 + y = 1, so y = 1 - 0.85 = 0.15
The numbers, therefore, are 0.85 and 0.15 (you can check by using the other equation).
Hope this helps!
Let "a" and "b" be the two numbers
So a*b=-8 and a+b=-7
Therefore S=-7 and P=-8
Using (x^2)-S+P=0 => (x^2)-(-7)+(-8)=0 => (x^2)+7-8=0
By factorizing we get (x+8)(x-1)=0
So a can be either -8 or 1 and b can be 1 or -8
Meaning that the two numbers are -8 and 1.
