<span>The difference between two integers is at most 16
x1 - big integer
x2- small integer

</span><span>the smaller integer is 12
so
x2 = 12
substitution
</span>
<span>

solve for x1
however, note the fact larger
thus meaning
x1 > x2 applies to this problem
</span>
Let "a" and "b" be the two numbers
So a*b=-8 and a+b=-7
Therefore S=-7 and P=-8
Using (x^2)-S+P=0 => (x^2)-(-7)+(-8)=0 => (x^2)+7-8=0
By factorizing we get (x+8)(x-1)=0
So a can be either -8 or 1 and b can be 1 or -8
Meaning that the two numbers are -8 and 1.
The answer is 30.
First off, the numbers are consecutive even numbers. So, the difference between every consecutive number is 2 (numbers go from even to odd to even to odd...). Since the sum of their numbers is 96, I divided that by 3 to get 32. This gives me the median of the three numbers. To find the smallest number, I simply subtracted 2 from the 32.
This may help:
96/3=32
32 + 32 + 32 = 96
(32-2)+(32+0)+(32+2)=96
30+32+34=93
The answer would be 11 because the x's 9 doesnt have to move because they're on the same point. If you take 7 away from -7 you get zero. Add 4 to that 7 and you get 11. Make sesnse?
Hope this helped!
Answer:
(a)i. Area=72 square feet
ii. Perimeter =34 feet
(b) Baseboard - perimeter
Carpet - area
Step-by-step explanation:
The room is 9ft x 8ft, therefore it is rectangular shaped.
Length=9ft; Breadth=8ft
(a)i. Area of a Rectangle= Length X Breadth
Area of the room=8X9=72 square feet
ii. Perimeter of a Rectangle=2(Length+Breadth)
Perimeter of the room=2(8+9)=2 X 17 =34 feet
(b) A baseboard goes around the edge or boundary of the room, so it has to do with perimeter
A carpet covers the entire floor so it has to do with the area of the room.
