Find all the two-digit whole numbers (greater than zero) such that the difference between the whole number and the product of its digits is 12
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = 10's digit
\n" ); document.write( "Let y = units digit
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Write an equation for what it says:
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "(10x + y) - xy = 12
\n" ); document.write( "y - xy = 12 - 10x
\n" ); document.write( "y(1 - x) = 12 - 10x\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y = \"%28%2812-10x%29%29%2F%28%281-x%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Use the equation, to find y
\n" ); document.write( " x | y | no.|xy
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( " 2 | 8 | 28, 16
\n" ); document.write( " 3 | 9 | 39, 27
\n" ); document.write( "and that's it
\n" ); document.write( "
