Answer:

-3 and -9

Step-by-step explanation:

First, it is helpful to write out what is given by the question, with variables x and y.

         x*y = 27

         x+y = -12

Now we will isolate a variable from one and plug it into the other:

         y = -12 - x

         x(-12-x) = 27

         -x^2 -12x -27 = 0

         x^2 + 12x + 27

         (x + 9) (x + 3) = 0

         x must be either -9 or -3

Now we plug those x-values into either equation to get their corresponding y-values:

         -9 + y = -12

         y = -3

         -3 + y = -12

         y = -9

We can see that the first x value (-9) corresponds to y = -3, and the second pair is -3 and -9. Either way, the pair is -3 and -9.

Therefore the pair of numbers must be -3 and -9.

The area of a regular octagon is 35 cm 2 what is the area of a regular octagon with sides three times as large
Maurinko [17]
The area of a polygon = n*side^2 / (4 * tan(180/n))
where "n" is the number of sides

Let's calculate area for side = 2
area = 8*2^2 / (4 * tan(180/8))
area = 32 / (4 * tan(22.5))
area = 32 / 4*0.41421
<span> <span> <span> area = 19.3138746047 </span> </span> </span>

Now, let's calculate area for side = 6
area = 8*6^2 / (4 * tan(180/8))
area = 288 / <span> <span> <span> 1.65684 </span> </span> </span>
area = <span> <span> <span> 173.824871442 </span> </span> </span>

<span> <span> 173.824871442 </span> / </span><span><span>19.3138746047 = </span> 9

So, the area would be 9 times larger.

ALSO, looking at the formula
</span>n*side^2 / (4 * tan(180/n))
we can see that the side length appears just once in the formula and we are to square it in the calculation.  So, if we increase the side length is increased by 3, then the area increases by 3^2 or 9.

Find the greatest common factor of these three expressions.
leva [86]
6x

42/6 = 7 (valid), 18/6 = 3 (valid), 12/6 = 2 (valid)

7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 are all not divisible by 12, and 12 is not divisible by 18, so 6 is the highest number.

Also, each number has at least one x, so you can take one out.

Remaining=
6x (7 + 3x^2 + 2x^3)
