The plus-minus sign represents that there are two possible outcomes.
In this case, we have

. When we branch out the possibilities we got 2 values:

and

Those are the roots of this equation. When they ask their product, they want you to multiply both numbers.
When we multiply them:

When we FOIL the we get:

Simplify:


So the product of the two roots of this equation is 6.
Answer: Hope this helps <3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: he used 6 lemons for each pitcher so answer is =6
Side lengths of the squares are x and y
4x+4y=52
divide both sides by 4 for simlicity
x+y=13
area is 89 so
x²+y²=89
ok
so
x+y=13
minus x both sides
y=13-x
sub that for y in other equation
x²+y²=89
x²+(13-x)²=89
x²+x²-26x+169=89
2x²-26x+169=89
minus 89 both sides
2x²-26x+80=0
undistribute 2
2(x²-13x+40)=0
factor
2(x-8)(x-5)=0
set to zero
x-8=0
x=8
x-5=0
x=5
x=5 or 8
find y
y=13-x
13-8=5
13-5=8
each square has side length of 5 or 8
perimiter is 4 times the area around so
5*4=20
8*4=32
the perimiters are 20cm and 32cm
The area is 13.
I think you were on the right track there. The area of the one on the bottom is 4*1, or 4. The area of the top upright rectangle is 9*1, or 9. 9+4=13.
