two numbers a and b
first equation:
the sum is adding them together a%2Bb
sum of the squares of each is same thing sqrt%28a%29%2Bsqrt%28b%29
the product of both sums is %28a%2Bb%29%28sqrt%28a%29%2Bsqrt%28b%29%29
this is set equal to 5500 so %28a%2Bb%29%28sqrt%28a%29%2Bsqrt%28b%29%29=5500
second equation:
difference of these numbers a-b
difference of the squares of the same sqrt%28a%29-sqrt%28b%29
product of the difference of these numbers and difference of the squares of the same %28a-b%29%28sqrt%28a%29-sqrt%28b%29%29
this is set equal to 352 so %28a-b%29%28sqrt%28a%29-sqrt%28b%29%29=352
.
so the 2 equations you are working with are:
%28a%2Bb%29%28sqrt%28a%29%2Bsqrt%28b%29%29=5500
%28a-b%29%28sqrt%28a%29-sqrt%28b%29%29=352
