Answer:

Then the two numbers are -11 and -6.

Answer:

11   and   6

Step-by-step explanation:

x+ y = 17     or    y = 17-x

and

xy = 66       sub in   y = 17-x

x ( 17-x) = 66

-x^2 + 17x - 66 = 0     either factor this, or use quadratic formula to find

                                         x =  6     y = 11
