Answer 2

Answer:

x=-3 Andy=-5

Or

x=5 and y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Two numbers differ by 2

product of the numbers is 15

let first number is x

second number is y

(x>y)

x-y=2 (1)

x.y= 15 (2)

from first equation x-y=2

x=2+y value of x put in 2nd equation

(2+y) y=15

2y+y²=15

y²+2y-15=0

y²+5y-3y-15=0

y(y+5)-3(y+5) =0

(y-3) (y+5) =0

if y=3 then value if x from 1st equation

x-3=2

x=2+3=5

if y=-5 then value of x from 1st equation

x+5=2

x=2-5

x= -3

x=-3 Andy=-5

Or

x=5 and y=3
