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.
