Two numbers are 10 units away in different directions from their midpoint, m, on a number line. The product of the numbers is 99. Which equation can be used to find m, the midpoint of the two numbers? (m 5)(m + 5) = 99 (m 10)(m + 10) = 99 m2 25 = 99 m2 100 = 99

(m - 10)(m + 10) = 99
Step-by-step explanation:
Two numbers are 10 units away in different directions from their midpoint, m, on a number line.
So, the two numbers can be expressed as (m + 10) and (m - 10).
Again, the numbers have a product of 99.
Therefore, the equation that can be used to find m will be
(m - 10)(m + 10) = 99 (Answer)
