Answer:
(3, 2), (2, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 5
xy = 6
Solve the first equation for x.
x = 5 - y
Substitute 5 - y for x in the second equation.
xy = 6
(5 - y)y = 6
5y - y² = 6
y² - 5y + 6 = 0
Factor.
(y - 2)(y - 3) = 0
y - 2 = 0 or y - 3 = 0
y = 2 or y = 3
Now substitute 2 for y in the first equation and solve for x.
x + y = 5
x + 2 = 5
x = 3
One solution is x = 3; y = 2, or (3, 2).
Now substitute 3 for y in the first equation and solve for x.
x + y = 5
x + 3 = 5
x = 2
Another solution is x = 2; y = 3, or (3, 2).

Answer:
GCF 4, LCM 80
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both 16 and 20 have two 2s as factor, their greatest common factor is 4.
The LCM is found by multiplying all of the remaining factors by the LCM:
16 still has (2 x 2), 20 still has (5), times the GCF (4) so 2 x 2 x 5 x 4 = 80.
