Let first number = X and 2nd number = Y

Equation 1: 5X + 8Y = -13

Equation 2: 5X + 10Y = -15

Multiply equation 1 by -1 to get: -5X + -8Y = 13

Now add the 2 equations together:
-5X + 5X = 0

-8Y + 10Y = 2Y

13 + -15 = -2

The total of the 2 equations is 2Y = -2

divide both sides by 2 to solve for Y
Y = -2 / 2
Y = -1
 Now we know the 2nd number is -1, so replace Y in the 1st equation and solve for X

5X +8(-1) = -13

5x + -8 = -13

Add 8 to both sides:
5x = -5

Divide both sides by 5 to get x

X = -5 / 5
X = -1

Both numbers are -1

To check replace X and Y with -1 and solve:

1st equation: 5(-1) +8(-1) = -5 + -8 = -13  TRUE

2nd equation: 5(-1) +10(-1) = -5 + -10 = -15 TRUE

Both numbers are -1

1st number be x, 2nd number be y

Adding 5 times the first number and 8 times the second number gives a total of -13

so 5x+8y=-13

Adding 5 times the first number and 10 times the second number gives -15

so 5x+10y=-15

subtracting the above two eqns

(5x+8y)-(5x+10y) = -13-(-15)

-2y=2

y=-1

put back in first eqn 5x+8(-1)=-13

5x=-5

x=-1

the length of the rectangle is twice its width. write and solve a system of linear equations to find the length L and width W of
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

2 ( m + 2 m)  = 36 is the required linear equation

Length of the rectangle is 12 ft and width =  6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle = m ft.

So, the length of the rectangle = 2m  ft.

Perimeter  of rectangle = 36 ft

Now, PERIMETER OF THE RECTANGLE = 2(LENGTH + WIDTH)

⇒2 ( m + 2m)  = 36

or, 2 x 3m  = 36

⇒ 6m  = 36  , or m  = 36/6

⇒ m  =6 ft

So, the Width of the rectangle;  =  m = 6 ft

and the Length of the rectangle  = 2 m  = 2 x 6 =  12 ft.

Find a quadratic polynomial whose sum and and product is -7 and -2
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

<h2>x²+7x-2 = 0</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of a quadratic equation with roots a and b is expressed as shown;

x²-(sum of root) x + (product of roots) = 0

x² - (a+b)x + ab = 0 ... 1

Given the sum of roots a+b = -7

Product of roots ab = -2

Substituting this values in equation 1 above wil give;

x²-(-7)x+(-2) = 0

x²+7x-2 = 0

The resulting quadratic polynomial is x²+7x-2 = 0
