It has to be 2 different numbers.
\n" ); document.write( "x + x = 6 --> x = 3
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "Then, you have (x + x)^2 = 20. That's not what it says.
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "x = 1 number
\n" ); document.write( "y = the other number
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 6
\n" ); document.write( "x^2 + y^2 = 20 not (x+y)^2 = 20
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
