Answer:

The product is 8.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> one number

y ----> the other number

I assume x>y

x-y=4 ----> equation A

x+y=-7 ---> equation B

Solve the system by elimination

Adds equation A and equation B

x-y=4

x+y=-7

-----------

2x=-3

x=-1.5

Find the value of y

x-y=4

-1.5-y=4

y=-1.5-4=-5.5

The numbers are -1.5 and -5.5

Find their product

(-1.5)(-5.5)=8.25

Answer:

option D

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^{2} + y^{2} = 16\\\\x^{2} = 16- y^{2}$

equation 2:

$\frac{x^{2}}{4} - \frac{y^{2}}{25} = 1$

so we have:

$\frac{16- y^{2} }{4}-\frac{y^{2}}{25}= 1$
