Let 
be the two numbers. We have two pieces of information:
(the difference between the two numbers is 2)
(their product is 224)
From the first equation, we can deduce 
If we plug this expression in the second equation, we have
If you solve this equation with the usual quadratic formula you get the solutions
So, you have the following couple of solutions, recalling that x is 2 more than y:
Hello!
Let's solve our equation below.
7p-4=8
First we add 4 to both sides.
7p=12
We divide both sides by 7.
p≈1.71
I hope this helps!
Answer:
(x - 4)^2 + (y - 6)^2 = 100
i can not give the answer unless you still cannot find it after these steps but I have steps that might help
1. Set the matrix (must be square).
2. Reduce this matrix to row echelon form using elementary row operations so that all the elements below diagonal are zero.
3. Multiply the main diagonal elements of the matrix - determinant is calculated.
