Question #a2758

Answer 1

The two numbers are `2` and `3`.

Explanation:

The easiest way to go about this question is to simply try all the combinations and see what we get.

We have two (unordered) pairs which could possibly work: `(1,4)` and `(2,3)`.

Now we need to check which of these satisfies the second condition.

`1^3+2(4^2)=33`

`2^3+2(3^2)=26`

We see that `26` is the smallest number so our pair is `(2,3)`.
