As Ironnica knows, I love questions like this!
So, I would set up two equations:
xy=864
x+y=48
By using subtraction on the second equation, y=48-x
Substituting this in the first equation, x(48-x)=864
Simplifying that gives -x2+48x=864
I'm going to subtract 864 from both sides to get -x2+48x-864
You might notice that there is now a quadratic, meaning we can use the quadratic formula! (Look it up if you don't know, it is very helpful in solving these kinds of problems)
The answer is x = 24±12i√2
If x = 24-12i√2, then y would equal 24+12i√2
Product = multiply.

To solve this problem, we are looking for two numbers that multiply to 150 and add to -19. Letβs break it down: Product of the two numbers: The two numbers should multiply to give 150. Sum of the two numbers: The same two numbers should add up to -19.
There are no two real numbers that do, but the complex numbers (2 + i) and (2 - i) will.If you want two numbers that multiply to negative 5 and add to positive 4 then: -1 and 5If you want two numbers that multiply to negative 5 and add to negative 4 then: 1 and -5
