Answer:
The first number is 5, and the other number is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
1st Number = n
2nd number = 2n +2
1st Number * 2nd Number =60
n(2n+2)=60
2n^2 + 2n =60
2n^2 +2n -60 = 0
Factor Out:
2(n-5)(n+6) = 0
n-5 = 0 n+6 = 0
n = 5 n = -6
n = -6 wont make sense so n =5 would be the answer
Check:
5(10+2) =60
5(12)= 60
60 = 60
