Answer:
-108
Step-by-step explanation:
-8 - ( -10 )²
= -8 - 100
= -108
Let the numbers be x and y. Then xy = -30 and x+y = -3.
Solve xy = -30 for y: y = -30/x
subst. -30/x for y in x+y= -3: x - 30/x = -3
Multiply all 3 terms by x: x^2 - 30 = -3x, so x^2 + 3x - 10 = 0
Solve this quadratic equation for x. x: {-5, 2}
If x = -5, then x+y = -3 becomes -5 + y = -3, and y = 2.
You should check to determine whether x=2 is also correct. If it is, what is the corresponding y value?
The equation for the line of reflection is x = 2.
If you drew a vertical line crossing the x-axis on x = 2, the drawing will be the same on the left and right side, as if one side was drawn then exactly copied on the other side but flipped.
The figure is symmetrical, and x = 2 is the line of symmetry.
