Question

The difference of two positive numbers is 6 their product is 216 find the numbers

Answer 1

Answer:

-12,-18

Step-by-step explanation:

assume two numbers are x,y

x-y=6

x=y+6

and xy=216

(y+6)×y=216

y^2+6y-216=0

y^2+18y-12y-216=0

y(y+18)-12(y+18)=0

so y=12,-18

x=-12,y=-18

hope you understand

please rate as brainliest answer..

Answer 2

Answer:

x-y = 6_____(1)

xy = 216

(x+y)^2 - (x-y)^2 = 4xy

(x+y)^2 - 36 = 864

(x+y)^2 = 900

x+y = 30_____(2)

on solving eq (1) & (2)

x = 18

y = 12
