The numbers are (-8, 3) or (3, -8).
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given the product of the numbers are -24 and their sum are -5. Let the numbers be a and b. Form equations out of these details.
⇒ a + b = -5 ⇒ b = -5 - a
⇒ a × b = -24 -------- (1)
- Step 2: Substitute the value of b in eq(1)
⇒ a × (-5 - a) = - 24
⇒ -5a - a² = -24
⇒ a² + 5a - 24 = 0
- Step 3: Solve the quadratic equation for a.
a = (-5 ± √25 - 4 × 1 × -24)/2
= (-5 ± √121)/2
= - 16/2, 6/2 = -8 or 3
- Step 4: For each value of a, find b.
When a = -8, b = -5 +8 = 3
When a = 3, b = -5 - 3 = -8.
<h2>Solving Equations</h2>
To solve linear equations, we must perform inverse operations on both sides of the equal sign to <em>cancel values out</em>.
- If something is being added to x, subtract it from both sides.
- If something is being subtracted from x, add it on both sides.
- Same with multiplication and division. If x is being divided, multiply. If x is being multiplied, divide.
We perform inverse operations to<em> combine like terms</em>. This means to get x to one side and everything else on the other.
<h2>Solving the Questions</h2><h3>Question 1</h3>
Because 7 is being added to x, subtract it from both sides:
Because x is being multiplied by 5, divide both sides by 5:
Therefore. 
.
<h3>Question 2</h3>
Here, we can group all the x values on the left side of the equation. Subtract 5x from both sides:
To isolate x, subtract 4 from both sides:
Divide both sides by 2:
Therefore,

Answer: choice B) counterclockwise rotation of 90 degrees around the origin</h3>
To go from figure Q to figure Q', we rotate one of two ways
* 270 degrees clockwise
* 90 degrees counterclockwise
Since "270 clockwise" isn't listed, this means "90 counterclockwise" is the only possibility.
Answer:
A) 420 seconds = 7 minutes
B) 8 times
Step-by-step explanation:
A) After how many second would all three things happen together again?
Solution:
His clock ticked every 5 seconds , a tap was dripping every 7 seconds and his pet dog snored every 12 seconds. It all happens simultaneously = 5*7*12=420 seconds
B) How many times would all three things happen together again between midnight and one o'clock
Since all these events happen together after every 420 sec = 7 mins and there are 60 mins between midnight and 1 o'çlock , thus 60/7 = 8 times ....
