Answer:

-23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let first negative integer = x

The second = x +5

Their product = 126, hence,

x * (x +5) = 126

x^2 + 5x = 126

x^2 + 5x - 126 = 0

Two numbers whose product gives - 126 and sun gives 5

x(x + 14) - 9(x+14) =0

(x - 9) = 0 or (x + 14) = 0

x = 9 or x = - 14

Since x is said to be a negative integer,, the our x = - 14

First integer = - 14

Second integer = (x + 5) = (-14 + 5) = - 9

Sum of both integers :

-14 + - 9 = - 23
