Question

The A. m. Of two positive numbers is 40 and their G. M. is 24.The numbers are​

Answer 1

Answer:

a+b/2=40

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{ab} = 24$

ab=24^2=576

a+b=80

(a-b)^2=(a+b)^2 -4ab

Answer 2

Answer:

a+b/2=40

√ab=24

ab =576

b=576/a

from above

a+b=80

Putting the value b=576/a

we get

a+576/a=80

a^2-80a+576=0

a^2-72a-8a+576=0

a(a-72)-8(a-72)=0

a=72,8

b=8,72
