What are two numbers that add to -1 and multiply to -8

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ierofanga [76]3 years ago

Answer:

  (-1-√33)/2, (-1+√33)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

If one of them is x, then it satisfies ...

  x + -8/x = -1

  x^2 -8 = -x . . . . . multiply by x

  x^2 +x = 8 . . . . . add x+8

  x^2 +x + 1/4 = 8+1/4 . . . . complete the square

  (x +1/2)^2 = 33/4

  x + 1/2 = ±(1/2)√33 . . . . . . take the square root

  x = (-1/2)(1 ± √33) . . . . . . . subtract 1/2

The numbers are approximately ...

  -3.37228, 2.37228

Answer:

As waiwai993 answered, Can/May/Will have different meanings. However asking someone if they can help you usually implies that you would like their help, and it gives the person an opportunity to decline without being rude. Maybe they are able to help in theory, but can't right now because they are too busy. In that case they can say that they can't help. If they simply don't want to help they can just decline without a reason. So I would always use "Can you help me with this" or "Could you help me with this" unless I needed a more specific case (such as I KNOW that they CAN, but I am forcing to answer whether they WILL or not, or I know that they are ABLE, but maybe their mother won't let them*).

Which fraction is equal to 5/6? 8/22, 25/30, 5/15?
nadya68 [22]
If the fraction cannot be simplified any more, you can multiply both the numerator and denominator by an number.

5/6 (multiply the top and bottom by 2) is the same as 10/12
8/22 (can be simplified by dividing top and bottom by 2) is 4/11
25/30 (simplified by dividing by 5) is 5/6
5/15 (simplified by dividing by 5) is 1/3

Hope this helps!
