Number System If the sum of the two numbers is 22 and the sum of their squares is 404, then the product of the numbers is: 40 88 80 44 40 88 80 44 ANSWER EXPLANATION DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP Let the numbers be x and y. Then, (x + y) = 22 and x2 + y2 = 404 Now, 2xy = (x + y)2 - (x2 + y2) 2xy= 222 - 404 = 484 - 404 = 80xy = 40
Number System The product of two natural numbers is 17. Then, the sum of the reciprocals of their squares is: 1/289 289 290/289 289/290 1/289 289 290/289 289/290 ANSWER EXPLANATION DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP Let the numbers be a and b. Then,ab = 17, a = 1 and b = 17So, 1/a2 + 1/b2 = (a2 + b2)/a2 b2 = (12 + 172)/(1 * 17)2 = 290/289
