Let "a" and "b" be the two numbers
So a*b=-8 and a+b=-7
Therefore S=-7 and P=-8
Using (x^2)-S+P=0 => (x^2)-(-7)+(-8)=0 => (x^2)+7-8=0
By factorizing we get (x+8)(x-1)=0
So a can be either -8 or 1 and b can be 1 or -8
Meaning that the two numbers are -8 and 1.
Answer:
y=770-55x --- given
y - 770 = 770 - 55x - 770 ----subtraction property of equality
y = -55x + 770 ---Simplification
y-770/-55 = -55x/-55 --- Division property of equality
-y-770/55=x---Simplification
Step-by-step explanation:
14 + 5(x+3)-7
14 + 5x +15 -7
5x + 22
