Answer:
6 and 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start off by thinking at what the question is asking us.
The product (multiplication) of two even numbers (x)(x+2) is which means =,
12 more (12) than the square of the smaller number (x).
So put that all together and you get (x)(x+2)=12+x^2=
Distribute the x, (x)(x+2)=
x^2+2x=x^2+12 Subtract x^2 from both sides.
2x=12
Divide both sides by 2 and you get x=6
So the two numbers are 6,8
6(8)=12+6^2
48=48
