Answer:Benjamin’s age = 30 and David’s age = 6
Explanation:
Let x be the age of Benjamin
Let y be the age of David
x + y = 36
And 2x + 2y = 72
If we plug 30 for x and 6 for y we get:
30 + 6 = 36
36 = 36
2(30) + 2(6) = 72
60 + 12 = 72
72 = 72

Answer:
(p+5)(p-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are looking for two numbers that multiply to -10 (the rightmost number) and sum to 3 (the middle number)
These are 5 and -2
So we write
(p ____)(p ____)
and fill in the blanks
(p+5)(p-2)
Check by FOILing:
p^2 -2p + 5p -10
And combine the two middle terms.
p^2 + 3p - 10
