<u>Given</u>:

Let the two numbers be x and y.

Two numbers multiply to be -7 and add to be -6.

This can be written in equation as,

xy=-7 and

x+y=-6

<u>Value of the two numbers:</u>

Let us determine the value of the two numbers using substitution method.

Substituting y=-6-x in the equation xy=-7, we get;

x(-6-x)=-7

Simplifying, we get;

       -6x-x^2=-7

   x^2+6x-7=0

(x+7)(x-1)=0

x=-7, 1

Thus, the values of x are x = 1,-7

When x = 1 , the equation x+y=-6 becomes y=-7

When x = -7, the equation x+y=-6 becomes y=1

Therefore, the two numbers are 1 and -7

A photographer uses an online service to sell some of his work. The amount of money he will make from selling 10 copies of the s
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression representing the amount of money that the photographer would make from selling 10 copies is given as

10(0.75p - 0.5)

where p represents the price determined for each copy. Assuming the price charged per copy is $5, then the amount made from 10 copies is

10(0.75 × 5 - 0.5) = $32.5

It could have been

10(5 - 0.5) = $45

The price is being reduced by 25%(100 - 75)

Therefore, the option that most likely describes the agreement between the online service company and the photographer is

A. The company keeps 25% of the amount paid for each copy and charges the photographer $0.50 for every copy purchased.
