Question

The sum of two number is 23 and their product is 120

Answer 1

Answer:

I think they were... 15,8 ...

Answer 2

Answer: if your question is -120, then this would be the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be X and Y

Given:

X+Y=23 ...eq 1

XY= -120......eq2

From eq 1

X=Y-23.........eq3

Now substitute eq 3 in 2

(Y-23)Y= -120

Y^2 - 23Y= -120

By factorising you get 15 and 8 as the numbers.
