Question

The sum of two numbers is 18. Their quotient is 2. What are the two numbers

Answer 1

Answer is 12 and 6

Explanation:

I just got it that question wrong and it told me lol

Answer 2

xy = 18
x/y = 2

x = 2y (multiply both sides of bottom by y)
so 2y*y = 18. 2y^2 = 18
y^2 = 9 y=3

x = 2y = 2*3 = 6

6 and 3
