To find two numbers that add up to 15 and multiply to 8, we can set up the equations: (x + y = 15) and (xy = 8). By substituting (y = 15 - x) into the multiplication equation, we get (x(15 - x) = 8). This simplifies to the quadratic equation (x^2 - 15x + 8 = 0). Solving this equation will give the two numbers that satisfy both conditions.
