Answer:

-10, -6

6, 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the one number be x.

One number is 3/5 of the other number.

The numbers are x and 3x/5.

Add 4 to one number, the sum equals the other number.

There are two possibilities.

A) x + 4 = 3x/5

B) 3x/5 + 4 = x

Solve A)

5x + 20 = 3x

2x = -20

x = -10

Solve B)

3x + 20 = 5x

2x = 20

x = 10

According to A)

x = -10

3x/5 = -6

According to B)

x = 10

3x/5 = 6

Answer:

-10, -6

6, 10

How do you distribute this <br><br>(x+5)(x+10)
topjm [15]

Answer: x^2+10x+5x+50    =    x^2+15x+50

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, use something called FOIL. It stands for first, outer, inner, last. Basically multiply the first x, by the first x in the second parenthesis. Then multiply that x by the outer x in the second parenthesis. After that, multiply the 5 by the inner x. Then the five by the ten.

Sunrise Trail is three and a quarter miles one mile equals 5280 feet what is the length in feet of the trail
kifflom [539]
So 1 mile= 5280 feet. So first take 5280 divided by 4 (because we have a quarter mile) = 1320. 
Then do 5280 x 3 (because we have three miles)= 15840 feet 
then take 1320 + 15840= 17160 feet 
The trail is 17,160 feet long
