Answer 2

Answer:

-4 and 1, or, -1 and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be = x and y, equations become-

• xy = -4
• y - x = 5

y = 5+x

→ x(5+x) = -4

→ x²+5x+4=0

→ x = -4, -1

When x = -4, then y = 5+x = 1

When x = -1, then y = 5+x = 4

Thus, there are two sets of numbers possible:

-4 and 1, or, -1 and 4
