Answer: 2 and 9

2*9 = 18

2+9 = 11

=======================================================

Explanation:

You can find this through trial-and-error. You're basically looking for factors of 18 which add to 11. Something like 6 and 3 won't work since 6+3 = 9, but 2 and 9 works since 2+9 = 11.

Or you can use algebra as shown below.

--------------

Let x and y be the two numbers. They have a product of 18, so x*y = 18.

They also have a sum of 11, meaning x+y = 11. Solving for y leads to y = 11-x

Plug this into xy = 18 and we get x(11-x) = 18 which becomes -x^2+11x = 18

Now subtract 18 from both sides to arrive at the equation -x^2+11x-18 = 0.

Let's use the quadratic formula to solve.

We'll plug in a = -1, b = 11, c = -18

x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(11)\pm\sqrt{(11)^2-4(-1)(-18)}}{2(-1)}\\\\x = \frac{-11\pm\sqrt{49}}{-2}\\\\x = \frac{-11\pm7}{-2}\\\\x = \frac{-11+7}{-2}\ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-11-7}{-2}\\\\x = \frac{-4}{-2}\ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-18}{-2}\\\\x = 2\ \text{ or } \ x = 9\\\\

If x = 2, then y = 11-x = 11-2 = 9

If x = 9, then y = 11-x = 11-9 = 2

Both values of x lead to the same pair of values overall, meaning that 2 and 9 are the two values we're after.

2*9 = 18

2+9 = 11

muminat

Dear Mrs./Ms./Mr. ...

My name is ... and the reason I'm reaching out to you is my belief that people should know about a certain person named ... She lives in a village in India and has recently become a hero for some and an outcast for others.

..., as many other girls in her country, was brought up in a traditional family whose values were taught her, but certainly not accepted without questioning and resistance. She has, even though with little support at first, decided to fight an ancient system she believes to be most unfair.

She has refused to get married in an attempt to protest against the dowry system. She belives it to be a tradition worth letting go of, one that keeps women where they do not belong: below, as someone who not only has the obligation of getting married, but the obligation of paying for it.

... has suffered a great deal and had it not been for some good friends and social media, she might not have had any of the acknowledgment she has now gained.

I believe, however, that more can be done for her through your newspaper. If her story were to be shared and known this way, it might open the doors for her to become an official speaker on behalf of all the women who live under the same circumstances.

I truly hope you'll take my request into consideration. For further information about her, you may contact me at...

Sincerely,

...
