a + b = 8, a x b = 8 a = 8 - b so 8b - b^2 = 8 ie b^2 - 8b + 8 = 0 Using the quadratic formula gives (8 +/-sqrt(64 - 32)/2 ie (8 +/- 5.66)/2 = 4 +/- 2.83 so the dimensions are 1.17 and 6.83, which sum to 8 and multiply to 7.9911. Near enough?
6 and 2 are a number pair with a sum of 8 and a product of 12
8
-8 and -3 have a sum of -11 and product of 24
The numbers are: -10 and -8
-4 and -2
6 and 2 are a number pair with a sum of 8 and a product of 12
2 and 8
12 and 8
The two numbers are 8 and 15
8
-8 and -3 have a sum of -11 and product of 24
8 + 3 = 11 8 x 3 = 24 The two numbers are therefore 8 and 3.
The numbers are: -10 and -8
127
3 and 5
7 and 8
They are: -8 and 6
