Question

What that two numbers when multiplied give 600 and when added give 59 ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 numbers be x and y

From the problem we have that

x * y = 600 and x + y = 59

From x + y = 59 -> x = 59 - y

Plug x = 59 - y to x * y = 600 we have

(59 - y) * y = 600

-> 59y - y^2 = 600

-> -y^2 + 59y - 600 = 0

-> y = $(59 - \sqrt{1081})/2$ or $(59 + \sqrt{1081})/2$

Then we could plug the answers in and find x because x = 59 - y
