lets say that y is biggerr
y-x=5
and
y=x+5

pproduct is 126
xy=126
substiutute x+5 for y
(x+5)(x)=126
x^2+5x=126
x^2+5x-126=0
factor
whaat 2 numbbers multtiply to get -126 aand addd to gget 5
-9 and 14
(x-9)(x+14)=0
sset to zzero
x-9=0
x=9, nah we nneed 2 nnegative nnumbers

x+14=0
x=-14

so thenn
y=x+5
y=-14+5
y=-9

the summ is -14-9=-23

If b>a, b-a=5 so b=5+a

ab=126, using b from above

a(5+a)=126

5a+a^2=126

a^2+5a-126=0
 
(a+14)(a-9)=0, since a<0 the numbers are

-14 and -9

How can you tell when a pattern shows counting on by tens?
velikii [3]
<span><u><em>Answer:</em></u>
The difference between successive terms is 10

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
To know the factor by which a certain pattern is increasing/decreasing, you need to subtract its successive terms.

If the subtraction gives you 10, this means that the pattern is increasing by 10

<u>Examples:</u>
<u>10, 20, 30, 40, 50, .....</u>
20 - 10 = 10
30 - 20 = 10
40 - 30 = 10
50 - 40 = 10
The difference between each two successive terms is 10. This means that each time we add 10 to the number we have in order to get the next one.
Therefore, this pattern is increasing by 10

<u>37, 47, 57 , .....</u>
47 - 37 = 10
57 - 47 = 10
The difference between each two successive terms is 10. This means that each time we add 10 to the number we have in order to get the next one.
Therefore, the pattern is increasing by 10

Hope this helps :)</span>

How much it will take for a bag to travel 5 meters across the floor of it is traveling at 1 m/s
tester [92]
Time = \frac{distance}{speed}

The distance the bag will travel is 5 meters, and the speed it is traveling at is 1 m/s. Plug these into the formula for time.

\frac{5 m}{1 m/s} = 5 s
5/1 = 5 and the m (meters) cancel out, so you are left with s, seconds.

It will take the bag 5 seconds to travel across the floor.
