<PRE><B>Question 159192</B>
find two positive numbers so that twice their sum equals their product and one number is 10 times the other number
-------------
Let the numbers be x and 10x
EQUATION:
2(x + 10x) = x(10x)
22x = 10x^2
5x^2 - 11x = 0
x(5x-11) = 0
x = 0 or x = (11/5)
------------------------
If x = 0, 10x = 0 ( not two different so not the solution to the problem)
If x = (11/5), 10x = 22
============================
