Respuesta :

let two integers be x and y

A.T.Q

x+y= -3

or, x= -3-y(i)

and xy= -18

or,(-3-y)y= -18[by(i)]

or,- -3y-y²= -18

or,-y²= -18+3

or, -y²= -15

or, y²=15

therefore y=✓15

from (i)

x= -3-✓15

y=√15

Answer:

3 and -6

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, let's find the factors of -18

  • -1 and 18, or -18 and 1
  • -2 and 9, or -9 and 2
  • -3 and 6, or -6 and 3

2. Next, we have to find which of the factors add up to -3.

  • [tex]-1 + 18 = 17[/tex]
  • [tex]-18+1=-17[/tex]
  • [tex]-2+9=7[/tex]
  • [tex]-9+2=-7[/tex]
  • [tex]-3+6=3[/tex]
  • [tex]-6+3=-3[/tex]

3. Great! Now that we found the factors that result in a product of -18 and a sum of -3, the factors are 3 and -6.
