Explanation:

Set up two equations

2

x

+

2

y

=

54

x

×

y

=

176

Solving the first equation for x

2

x

+

2

y

−

2

y

=

54

−

2

y

this gives

2

x

=

54

−

2

y

Divide both sides by 2

(

2

x

2

)

=

54

−

2

y

2

This gives.

x

=

27

−

y

putting this value into the second equation gives.

(

27

−

y

)

×

y

=

176

multiplying across the parenthesis gives

27

y

−

y

2

=

176

subtracting 176 from both sides gives

is

27

y

−

y

2

−

176

=

0

multiplying by negative one gives

−

27

y

+

y

2

+

176

=

0

factoring this into y gives

(

y

−

11

)

×

(

y

−

16

)

=

0

Solving for both y's gives

y

=

11

,

y

=
