How to solve<br> -22-x=5+6x+9

nadya68 [22]

-22 - x = 5 + 6x + 9 Combine like terms (5 and 9)
-22 - x = 14 + 6x Subtract 6x from both sides
-22 - 7x = 14 Add 22 to both sides
-7x = 36 Divide both sides by -7
x = 5 $\frac{1}{7}$

What two numbers multiply to get 40 and add to get 11

Trava [24]

I got the factors of 40 but both numbers do not add up to 11. Negative numbers are not considered because the product and sum are positive numbers.

1 x 40 = 40 1 + 40 = 41
2 x 20 = 40 2 + 20 = 22
4 x 10 = 40 4 + 10 = 14
5 x 8 = 40 5 + 8 = 13

I also got the addends of 11 and solved each set to get the product
1 + 10 = 11 1 x 10 = 10
2 + 9 = 11 2 x 9 = 18
3 + 8 = 11 3 x 8 = 24
4 + 7 = 11 4 x 7 = 28
5 + 6 = 11 5 x 6 = 30
