Answer 1

Answer:

20 and 12 are the correct numbers, have a nice day!

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Given the conditions can be as follows:

1.X+Y = 32

2.X*Y = 240

Let the 2 numbers be x and y.

Now consider (2) then x*y=240 , y=240/x , substitute this in (1). We get,

(x)(32-x)=240

x²-32x+240=0

x²-20x-12x+240=0

(x-20)(x-12)=0

x=20 or 12

the numbers are 20 and 12

Let check if the given conditions are correct:

1. 20 +12=32. (which satisfy the condition)

2. 20×12=240
