Answer:
The two numbers can be -12 and 11, or 11 and -12.
Step-by-step explanation:
xy=-132
x+y=-1
-------------
x=-1-y
(-1-y)y=-132
-y-y^2=-132
-y^2-y-(-132)=0
-y^2-y+132=0
y^2+y-132=0
factor out the trinomial,
(y-11)(y+12)=0
zero property,
y-11=0, y+12=0,
y=0+11=11,
y=0-12=-12
x+11=-1 & x+(-12)=-1
x=-1-11=-12
x=-1-(-12)=-1+12=11
Answer:
x < 3
Step-by-step explanation:
−4x − 8 > −20
Add 8 to both sides.
-4x > -12
Divide both sides by -4. Remember that when you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, the direction of the inequality sign changes.
-4x/(-4) < -12/(-4)
x < 3
Answer:
28-8-4x=0
x=5
5 days
Step-by-step explanation:
28-8=20 problems left
then 4 each day
Instead of subtracting 10, you can add negative 10
