Please help me with how to solve this equation by completing the square. The answer should be (2, -6) Equation: 5n^2+20n-60=0

(2, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

5n^2+20n-60

(5n+30)(n-2)

5n + 30 = 0

5n = -30

(5n = -30)/5

n = - 6

n - 2 = 0

n = 2

(2, -6)

16

Step-by-step explanation:

We must find integers x, y with the most amount of prime divisors, not necessarily distinct, such that x + 3y < 1,000.

Obviously, this is achieved when the divisor is the least prime 2. So, we must find integers n, m such that

since , then n must be 9. For n=9 we find the greatest integer m such that  

and we find m=7

 and   ,  are the numbers we are looking for and the sum of their length is 9+7 = 16.

So, 16 is the maximum possible sum of the length of x and the length of y.
