Answer:

99 and - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

let x and y be the 2 numbers, then

x + y = 87 → (1)

x - y = - 111 → (2)

Adding the 2 equations term by term eliminates the y- term

2x = - 24 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 12

Substitute x = - 12 into (1)

- 12 + y = 87 ( add 12 to both sides )

y = 99

The 2 numbers are 99 and - 12

Given the polynomial 6x3 + 4x2 − 6x − 4, what is the value of the constant 'k' in the factored form? 6x3 + 4x2 − 6x − 4 = 2(x +
CaHeK987 [17]
First you graph it using a graphing calculator, you look at the table of values to find out one point in which y= 0. The first one that comes up is when x=1.
If you don't have a graphing calculator you can use trial and error by inputing some numbers into x until you get y= 0. 

Once you have an x value which makes y=0, you can start factorizing it. 
you divide 6x3 +4x2 -6x - 4 into (x-1) which is when y =0 
to get 6x2+10x+4 

This can be used to write the polynomial as (x-1)(6x2 +10x+4) 
you then factorize the second bracket, 6x2 +10x+4.
you can take the 2 outside to give you 2(3x2 +5x+2) 
you can factorize this to become 2(3x+2)(x+1) 

Now you just substitute your factorized second bracket into your unfactorized second bracket to give you 2(3x+2)(x+1)(x-1).

From this you can deduce that k= 1

HELP PLEASE PLEASE HELP<br> Solve for t.<br> -10t − -17t − 10t + -13 = 11
Marta_Voda [28]

-10t - (-17t) - 10t + (-13) = 11   (two negative signs makes a positive)

-10t + 17t - 10t - 13 = 11  Combine like terms

-3t - 13 = 11    Add 13 on both sides

-3t = 24     Divide -3 on both sides

t = -8
