it was right! ok, and the last question is just like this - Find two numbers such that their sum is 12 and their product is 26.

Answer 8

you sure it's 26?

Answer 9

Yep. It says it exactly.

Answer 10

it might not be a whole number, if that helps. It might not be, but I'm not sure.

Answer 11

it's definitely not a whole number

Answer 12

wait i got it hold on

Answer 13

ok

Answer 14

6+sqrt(10) is one of the numbers, the other one you just do 12-(6+sqrt(10))

Answer 15

it said it was wrong :(

Answer 16

which number is smaller and which is larger, btw?

the numbers i gave up add up to 12 and multiply to 26...

Answer 20

hmm...

Answer 21

which number is smaller and which number is bigger again?

Answer 22

6+sqrt(10) is bigger

Answer 23

ok, that it now says that 6+sqrt(10) is correct, but the other one is still wrong

Answer 24

the only clue I have is that the other answer is a smaller value

Answer 25

you just do 12-(6+sqrt(10)). which is 6-sqrt(10)

Answer 26

oh ok. I originally put in the whole 12 - 6
