Question 480596
What two positive integers have the product of 5 and the sum of 8? 
-----
Equations:
xy = 5
x + y = 8
---------------
x = 8-y
---
Sustitute for "x" and solve for "y":
(8-y)y = 5
-y^2+8y-5 = 0
y^2-8y+5 = 
y = [8+- sqrt(64-4*1*5)]/2
-------------
y = [8 +- sqrt(44)]/2
----
Solution is not an integer.
