Find two real numbers that have a sum of 6 and a product of 4.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 6
\n" ); document.write( "y = (6-x)
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "xy = 4
\n" ); document.write( "substitute (6-x) for y
\n" ); document.write( "x(6-x) = 4
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "6x - x^2 = 4
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "0 = x^2 - 6x + 4
\n" ); document.write( "Use the quadratic formula to find x: a=1; b=-6; c=4
\n" ); document.write( "Solutions
\n" ); document.write( "x =5.236 then y = .764
\n" ); document.write( " and
\n" ); document.write( "x =.764 then y = 5.236
\n" ); document.write( ";

\n" ); document.write( " 5.326 * .764 = 4.00
\n" ); document.write( " 5.326 + .764 = 6\r
