    Let x and y be the unknown numbers.

    x + y = 5

    xy = 24

    x + y = 5

    y = 5-x

    xy = 24

    x (5-x) = 24

    5x - x² = 24

    - x² + 5x - 24 = 0

    (a + √a² - 4b) / 2

    (5 + √5² - 4 (-24)) / 2

    (5 + √25 + 96) / 2

    (5 + √121) / 2

    (5 + 11) / 2; (5 - 11) / 2

    16/2 - 6/2

    8; - 3
