The two positive numbers satisfying the given requirements are 15.56 and 15.56
For given question,
Let x and y be two positive numbers satisfying the given requirements.
⇒ xy = 242 .............(1)
The sum of given two positive numbers is a minimum.
Let the sum of given two positive numbers is S.
⇒ x + y = S ............(2)
From equation(1),
⇒ y = 242/x
Substitute above value of y in equation (2),
⇒ x + y = S
⇒ S = x + (242 / x)
Now, for above equation we find the derivative of x with respect to x.
⇒ 0 = 1 -
⇒ 242/x² = 1
⇒ x² = 242
⇒ x = ±15.56
Since the numbers are positive, x = 15.56
For x = 15.56
⇒ y = 15.56
Therefore, the two positive numbers satisfying the given requirements are 15.56 and 15.56
