Answer:
<em>Numbers: 6 and -2</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Equations</u>
This question can be solved by inspection. It's just a matter of factoring 12 into two factors that sum 4. Both numbers must be of different signs and they are 6 and -2. Their sum is indeed 6-2=4 and their product is 6*(-2)=-12.
However, we'll solve it by the use of equations. Let's call x and y to the numbers. They must comply:
![x+y=4\qquad\qquad [1]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%2By%3D4%5Cqquad%5Cqquad%20%5B1%5D)
![x.y=-12\qquad\qquad [2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x.y%3D-12%5Cqquad%5Cqquad%20%5B2%5D)
Solving [1] for y:

Substituting in [2]

Operating:

Rearranging:

Solving with the quadratic formula:

With a=1, b=-4, c=-12:



The solutions are:


This confirms the preliminary results.
Numbers: 6 and -2
0.04, or 4 hundredths is 10 percent of 0.40
10 times 0.04 gives you 0.40
Answer:
Jesse should buy a new bag in 16 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
He uses 18.75 grams a day.
We can multiply the amount of grams by the amount of days.
18.75 x 16 = 300
He stops using the bag when he uses 300 grams.
So he uses 1 bag for 16 days
1 bag can last for 16 days.
