Answer 1

Answer:

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

let the 1st no. be x and 2nd no. be y

also let x be the greater no.,

Then the equations are:-

                x-y = 7        .....(1)

                x*y = 60     ......(2)

 Therefore, x = y+7   ......(3)

 Putting 3 in 2 we get,

 (y+7)*y = 60,

y^2 + 7y - 60 = 0,

y^2+5y-12y-60 = 0,

Therefore, splitting the middle term,

y(y+7)-12(y+7),

(y+7) (y-12),

Therefore, y = -7 , 12

So, X= 0 and X = 19.

Hope it helps, Pls. mark as the brainliest answer.
