The mathematician Girolamo Cardano is credited with the first use (in 1545 ) of negative square roots in solving the now-famous problem, "Find two numbers whose sum is 10 and whose product is $40 . "$ Show that the complex numbers $5+i \sqrt{15}$ and $5-i \sqrt{15}$ satisfy the conditions of the problem. (Cardano did not use the symbolism $i \sqrt{15}$ or even $\sqrt{-15} .$ He wrote $\mathrm{R.m} 15$ for $\sqrt{-15},$ meaning "radix minus $15 . "$ He regarded the numbers $5+\mathrm{R} . \mathrm{m} 15$ and $5-\mathrm{R} . \mathrm{m} 15$ as "fictitious" or "ghost numbers," and considered the problem "manifestly impossible." But in a mathematically adventurous spirit, he exclaimed, "Nevertheless, we will operate.")
