The lowest possible product would be -6724 given the numbers 82 and -82.
We can find this by setting the first number as x + 164. The other number would have to be simply x since it has to have a 164 difference.
Next we'll multiply the numbers together.
x(x+164)
x^2 + 164x
Now we want to minimize this as much as possible, so we'll find the vertex of this quadratic graph. You can do this by finding the x value as -b/2a, where b is the number attached to x and a is the number attached to x^2
-b/2a = -164/2(1) = -164/2 = -82
So we know one of the values is -82. We can plug that into the equation to find the second.
x + 164
-82 + 164
82
This is the answer, too lazy too type it out
Let a number = n
n(7) = 48
isolate the n. Divide 7 from both sides
n(7)/7 = 48/7
n = 48/7
Divide
n = 6.857 is your answer
hope this helps
Answer:
7 - 2 / x = 4 + 10 / x
or , 7 - 4 = 10 / x + 2 / x
or , 3 = 12 / x
or , x = 12 / 3
Therefore , x = 4
I think this would be 4≥X<span>>-8
