The product of two numbers is 48 and the difference of those numbers is 13 what are the numbers?

X * y = 48

x - y = 13

x - y + y = 13 + y

x = 13+y

x*y=48

13+y * y = 48

13y+y²=48

y = - 16 y=3

x - y = 13

x - (-16) = 13

x + 16 = 13

x + 16-16 = 13-16

x = - 3

Answer: The two numbers are - 3 and - 16.

-3 * - 16 = 48

-3 - (-16) = 13
