If you multiply 'a' by the sum of 'a' and 'b', you get 30. If now a + (a * b) = 30, now a * b = a + (a * b) - a². Solve for non-negative integers 'a' and 'b'.
a = 10 and b = 2.
a = 10 and b = 2 Oh yeah???
Problem says: "If you multiply 'a' by the sum of 'a' and 'b', you get 30."
a * (a + b) = 30
10 * (10 + 2) = 30 NOT No wonder you don't show your work.
That's wrong, Guest. The solution is
a = 1
b = 29 .
But at least you tried.
