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.

Rearrange the equation so r is the independent variable.<br><br> 10q - 5r = 30
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

q = 3 + 1/2r

Step-by-step explanation:

10q - 5r = 30

We want to solve for q

Add 5r to each side

10q - 5r+5r = 30+5r

10q = 30+5r

Divide by 10

10q/10 = 30/10 +5r/10

q = 3 + 1/2r
