If the difference of two number is 8 and the difference of their squares is 160 then the numbers are

Answered by admin @



Answer:

The two numbers are 6 and 14

Step-by-step-explanation:

Let the two numbers be x and y

Given,

x - y = 8...... i)

&

x² - y² = 160.......ii)

From equation i), we get

x = y + 8

Now, by putting this value in equation ii)

(y + 8)² - y² = 160

☛ y² + 16y + 64 - y² = 160

y² and -y² gets cancelled as their sum will be zero

☛ 16y + 64 = 160

☛ 16y = 160 - 64

☛ 16y = 96

y = 6

Now, putting the value of y as 6

x - y = 8

☛ x - 6 = 8

☛ x = 8 + 6

x = 14

\textbf{The two numbers are 6 and 14}
