two positive integers have a product of 98. One integer is twice the other. what are the two integers?
Answer provided by our tutors
let 'x' and 'y' be the positive integers
two positive integers have a product of 98
x*y = 98
one integer is twice the other
y = 2x
plug y = 2x into x*y = 98
x*2x = 98
by solving we find and consider the positive roots since x needs to be positive
x = 7

y = 2x
y = 2*7
y = 14
the two integers are 7 and 14.
