Will give 30 points and brainliest. write the statement for the problem in mathematical language. use x for the tens digit and y for the unit digits in the two digit numbers. find the two-digit number which is greater than the product of its digits by 26 the statement is ? the number is ?

10x +y = xy +26

There are thee (3) sets of numbers that satisfy this.
.. (x, y) = (3, 2) . . . . the number is 32
.. (x, y) = (5, 6) . . . . the number is 56
.. (x, y) = (9, 8) . . . . the number is 98

If you solve the equation for y, you get
.. y = 10 -16/(x -1)
so x-1 is a 1-digit factor of 16: 2, 4, 8. These give rise to the solutions above.
