What two numbers can be multiplied to get negative 14 but also add to get positive 5

The numbers:  x, y
x·y=-14
x+y=5    ⇒    y=5-x
Substitute y in the first equation by y from second one
x·(5-x)=-14
5x-x²=-14
-x²+5x+14=0
-x²-2x+7x+14=0
-x(x+2)+7(x+2)=0
(x+2)(-x+7)=0
Product is 0 if one of factors is 0
x+2=0      or        -x+7=0
x=-2         or         -x=-7
x=-2         or           x=7
Now back to the equation y=5-x
y=5-(-2)    or     y=5-7
y=7           or     y=-2

The numbers are -2 and 7

Ava is 112 cm  olivia is 89 cm

Let smaller number be 2x , then the nest even number will be 2x + 2so   2x + 4(2x + 2) = 582x + 8x + 8 = 5810x = 50x = 5  so the first number is 2*5   = 10 and second one is 12
