Let's denote the two integers as x and y. We know that x + y = -9 and x - y = 5. By solving these two equations simultaneously, we can find the values of x and y. Adding the two equations eliminates the y variable, giving us 2x = -4. Therefore, x = -2. Substituting x = -2 back into the first equation gives us y = -7. Thus, the two integers are -2 and -7.

MaxineYour numbers are -2 and -7 and here's how you find them: a + b = -9 b = -9 - a b = (-9 - a) [We have now found the value of b in terms of a.] a - b = 5 a - (-9 -a) = 5 a +9 + a = 5 2a + 9 = 5 2a = -4 a = -2 [We have solved for a, and now we substitute that back in to solve for b.] a + b = -9 -2 + b = -9 b = -7 [And now we've solved for b, the second unknown, and solved our problem.]

How do i find the largest angle with consecutive integers on a pentagon?
The sum of all interior angles of a polygon with n sides is 180 degrees × (n - 2), so the sum of all angles within a pentagon is 540 degrees (180 x (5 - 2) = 180 x 3 = 540). The five interior angles of a pentagon then must have an average of 108 degrees each (540 / 5 = 180), and the angles having consecutive integers will be 106, 107, 108, 109, and 110 degrees. The largest angle will be 110 degrees.
What is the measure of the complement of a 85 degrees angle?
5 degrees angle, because the sum of two complementary angles is 90 degrees.
Can the lengths 5 9 and 14 form a triangle?
No because to form a triangle the sum of its two smaller sides must be greater than its longest side
What is the perimeter of a rectangle with base 14 cm and height 5cm?
The perimeter is the sum of the four sides. In this case, two sides have 14 cm each, and the other two sides have 5 cm eacn.
A convex polygon has 5 sides what is the sum of the measure of its exterior angles?
A convex figure has eight sides. What is the sum of its exterior angles?
What two integers have a difference of 2 and a sum of -12?
The integers are -7 and -5.
What two integers whose sum is 2 and whose difference is 8?
-3, 5
What two integers have a sum of -9 and a difference of 5?
Let's denote the two integers as x and y. We know that x + y = -9 and x - y = 5. By solving these two equations simultaneously, we can find that the two integers are -7 and -2. This is because -7 + (-2) = -9 and -7 - (-2) = 5.
What sum of two integers is 2 and the difference is 8?
5 + (-3) = 2 5 - (-3) = 8 The two numbers are therefore 5 and -3.
What are the integers if the sum of two integers is 15 and the product of two integers is 50?
5 & 10
The sum of two consecutive integers is -9 what are the integers?
-4 and -5
What two integers has a sum of -3 and a difference of -13?
10
If the sum of two integers is -5 Their product is four What are the integers?
-4 and -1
How do you find the sum of two integers when the signs of the integers are different and how do you decide to sign of the sum?
To find the sum of two integers with different signs, you simply combine them, and give the result the sign of the larger integer. For example, you have two integers: -9 and +5. You combine them, that is the +5 cancels out 5 of the -9, leaving -4.
Why The sum of two consecutive integers is thirty one?
It need not be. 2 and 3 are consecutive integers and their sum is 5, not 31.
What 2 integers have a sum of negative 3 and a difference of 7?
-2 and 5
The sum of the squares of two consecutive negative odd integers is 74 Find the integers?
The two consecutive negative odd integers having 74 as the sum of their squares are -5 and -7.
