# Product - quadratic equation

Product of two numbers is 900. If we increase lowest number by 2 then product will increase by 150. Determine both numbers.

Result

x =  75
y =  12

#### Solution:

$xy =900 \ \\ x(y+2) = 900 + 150 \ \\ xy + 2x = 900 + 150 \ \\ 2x = 150 \ \\ x = 75$
$y = 900/x = 12$
