what adds up to 13 but multiplies to 24

Nothing adds up to 13 and multiplies to 24, but if there are decimals it could work.

never mind, i realized my solution was incorrect, as i misread your question. sorry about that!

Hi Guest!

x + y = 13

y = x - 13

xy = 24

x(x-13) = 24

x^2-13x+24 = 0 

So now we have to use the quadratic equation

x = 13/2 + sqrt(73)/2 

y = 13/2 - sqrt(73)/2 

I hope this helped. 

So those are our 2 answers. :)))
