The two numbers are: 2.2 and 2
Make two equations: x+y=4.2 and xy=4.4
Using the first addition equation, x=4.2-y
You can plug in 4.2-y for x in the second multiplication equation.
y(4.2-y)=4.4
4.2y-y2=4.4
y2-4.2y+4.4=0
Use the quadratic formula--> y=[-b +/- sqrt(b2-4ac)]/2a
y=2.2 and 2

the two numbers are 50.54657341 and -8.546573405 That was a good try. The two numbers do add up to 42, but unfortunately the product of a positive and a negative is negative, so that they multiply to give -432 rather than 432. The correct answer is 18 and 24

This is mathematically impossible. The highest product that you can get with two numbers that make thirteen is 42 (7*6). The lowest sum you can get for two numbers with a product of 155 is 36 (31 and 5). All in all, it's impossible.

six, seven 7 + 6 = 13 (sum) 7 - 6 = 1 (difference) 7 x 6 = 42 (product)
