What is the minimum product of two numbers whose difference is 48? what are the numbers?
the minimum product
the two number yield this
simplify your answer

Hello,

Let's assume x the greatest number
                       y the smallest

x-y=48
P(x)=x*y=x*(x-48)=x²-2*24x+24²-24²=(x-24)²-576

Minimum if the vertex when x=24 and y=-24

Minimum product=-576
The two numbers are 24 and -24 but i don't know how to simplify!
