What two numbers when multiplied equals A but when added equals 4?

Answer 1

Let's denote the two numbers as x and y. We know that xy = A and x + y = 4. To find the two numbers, we can use the factoring method. We can rewrite the second equation as y = 4 - x and substitute this into the first equation to get x(4 - x) = A. This simplifies to x^2 - 4x + A = 0. We can then solve this quadratic equation to find the values of x and y.

Answer 2

Well, honey, the two numbers you're looking for are 2 and 2. They multiply to give you 4 and add up to 4 as well. It's like finding a good pair of shoes that are both stylish and comfy - a rare gem!
