उत्तर

Given x is 2 more than y, so x = y + 2
Sum of squares of x and y is 34, so x+ y= 34.
Replace x = y + 2 in the above equation and solve for y.
We get (y + 2)+ y= 34

2y+ 4y - 30 = 0
y+ 2y - 15 = 0
(y + 5)(y - 3) = 0
So y = -5 or 3
For y = -5, x =-3
For y = 3, x = 5
Product of x and y is 15 in both cases.
