One positive number is 2 more than twice another. Their product is 180. Step 2 of 2 : Find the numbers by solving the equation.

9 and 20

Step-by-step explanation:

x = one number

y = 2x+2 = other number

xy = 190

x(2x+2) = 180

2x^2 +2x = 180

2x^2 +2x- 180 = 0

Factor out 2

x^2 +x -90 = 0

(x+10)(x-9) =0

Using the zero product property

x+10 = 0  x-9=0

x= -10  x=9

But they have to be positive

x = 9

y = 2x+2 = 2(9)+2 = 18+2 = 20

step-by-step explanation:

subtract 7, so the answer is x < = 3, or c.

true
