Hi!
(x+a)·(x+b) = x²+xa+xb+ab = x²-12x-45
x² = x²
xa+xb = (a+b)x = -12x ⇒ (a+b) = -12
ab = -45
When (a+b) = -12 and ab = -45?
+3-15 = -12 and (+3)(-15) = -45
-3-15 = -18 and (-3)(-15) = +45
+3+15 = +18 and (+3)(+15) = +45
-3+15 = +12 and (-3+15) = -45
Answer:
(x+3)(x-15)
Answer:
$26
Step-by-step explanation:
15 * 2= 30
30-4= 26
The lowest possible product would be -6724 given the numbers 82 and -82.
We can find this by setting the first number as x + 164. The other number would have to be simply x since it has to have a 164 difference.
Next we'll multiply the numbers together.
x(x+164)
x^2 + 164x
Now we want to minimize this as much as possible, so we'll find the vertex of this quadratic graph. You can do this by finding the x value as -b/2a, where b is the number attached to x and a is the number attached to x^2
-b/2a = -164/2(1) = -164/2 = -82
So we know one of the values is -82. We can plug that into the equation to find the second.
x + 164
-82 + 164
82
Answer:
Part A $150.00
Part B $140.00 because you would do 35 x 4 = 140.
Part C, He will have $17 left over. You would take 167 - 140 = 17
Question 5, The would have gathered $150 because you would take 30 x 5 = 150.
