Step-by-step explanation:


when \: x = 2 \: and \: y = 3 \\ xy = (2 * 3) = 6 \\ when \: x = 2 \: and \: y = 12 \\ xy = (2 * 12) = 24 \\ when \: x = 5 \: and \: y = 12 \\ xy = (5 * 12) = 60 \\ when \: x = 5 \: and \: y = 3 \\ xy = (5 * 3) = 15 \\ values \: of \: xy \: are \: 6, \: 24, \: 60, \: 15

Final answer:

To find the possible values of XY, calculate the products of each x and y pair, which yields 6, 24, 15, and 60.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question involves finding the possible products of XY given that:

  • x can be 2 or 5
  • y can be 3 or 12

To find possible values for XY, you would calculate the product of each possible combination of x and y.

  1. 2 × 3 = 6
  2. 2 × 12 = 24
  3. 5 × 3 = 15
  4. 5 × 12 = 60

Thus, the possible values for XY are 6, 24, 15, and 60.
