the product of two integers is(-84).if one them is (-7),find the other
Answers
Answer:
The sum of two numbers is 84 and one of them is 12 more than the other. What are the two numbers?
Suppose,
The first number is x
The second number is y
So according to the given condition the sum of these two numbers is 84, so we can write
x+y=84 ————-(1)
Again one of them is more than 12 than the other that's why we can write,
x+12=y -------------(2)
Now putting the values of y in equation (1) we get,
x+x+12=84
=>2x+12=84
=>2x+12–12=84–12
=>2x=72
=>2x/2=72/2
=>x=36
Taking the value of x in equation(2) we get,
36+12=y
=>y=48
The two numbers are 48 and 36.
Check:
48+36=84
=>84=84
It satisfies.
Also 48 =36+12; which is more than 12 of 36.

Thanks.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the other integer be x
Also, it is given that the product of the two integers is −84. Therefore, we have:
X x [ -7] = - 84
= -7X = - 84
= X=84/7
X= 12
Proof
12 x -7= -84
