What 2 numbers multiply to -147 but add to -14?

Okay, so let's go over multiplying negative numbers.  A positive times a positive is a positive, right?  But a negative times a negative is also a positive.  Only a negative times a positive (or a positive times a negative) gives you a negative number.  So, we know that one of our 2 numbers in this question must be negative; the other must be positive.

Let's now take a look at the factors of -147, starting with the positives.  Obviously, -147 and 1 are factors: -147 * 1 = -147.  What other factors of -147 are there?

What about 7?  Try it: -147 / 7 = -21.  So here are two factors: -21, and 7.  They multiply to -147.  Do they add up to -14?  Let's see: -21+7 = 7+(-21) = 7-21= -14.  Yup, that works!

Answer: -21 and 7

One counting number is 4 times great as a counting number.The product of the two number is 36.What is the sum of the two number
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The sum of the two numbers is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the counting numbers be x and y.

Then we can write the following equations

x=4y.......1 (one is four times greater )

x(y)=36.....2 (the product of the two)

Putting equation 1 into equation 2, we get

4y(y)=36

{4y}^{2} = 36

Dividing through by 4,we get

{y}^{2} =  \frac{36}{4}

{y}^{2} = 9

Taking square root of both side, we obtain

y=3

Putting the value of y into equation , we get

x=4(3)=12

Hence the numbers are 3 and 12

Therefore the sum of the two numbers is 3+12=15

A principal of $2600is invested at 6.75% interest, compounded annually. How much will the investment be worth after 14 years
dedylja [7]

Answer:

$6488.19

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we use the compounded interest formula:

amount  =  principal(1 + (r \n))^({n}{t})

a = $2600(1+(0.0675/1))¹*¹⁴

a = $6488.19

) Three sides of a quadrilateral are the same length, q. The length of the fourth side is 7 inches.
Kruka [31]

Answer:

q=(40-7)/3 or simplified q=11

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that the perimeter is 40 inches and one of the sides is 7 so logically we do 40-7 to get the length of the three remaining sides combined. Then to find the length q, we have to divide that answer by 3 because the three sides have the same length or (40-7)/3, which simplified is 11, so the length of the side is 11 inches and the expression is q=(40-7)/3.

1. An orange is peeled . 18 identical sectors are found . What angle do does each semicircular surface make with another in a wh
KatRina [158]

Answer:

<h3>#1</h3>

<u>Since the circle covers 360°, each sector will be:</u>

  • 360°/18 = 20°

The same angle will be made between two adjacent semicircles.

<h3>#2</h3>

The points have same latitude but different longitude.

35°W and 15° are at different sides from zero longitude.

<u>The difference is:</u>

  • 35° + 15° = 50°
