Question

Find two integers whose sum -7 and whose product is 12

Answer 1

So we factor 12
remember that (-) times (-)=(+)
and
(-)+(-)=(-) so therefor the factors must be negative
factor 12
2,2,3

we have
-2 times -6 which adds to -8
-3 times -4 wihch adds to -7

the numbers are -3 and -4

Answer 2

The two integers are -3 and -4. -3 + -4 is -7. And multiplied together, it is 12.
