Answer:
52 if im wrong sorry :(
Step-by-step explanation:
X = 1
Explanation :
when you multiply negative 2 by negative six you get twelve. when you multiply positive one by negative six you get negative six.
If they're integers, that means they can't be fractions (such as 15/2 and 2).
So the only couples of integers that, when multiplied, result in 15 are:
1 and 15
5 and 3.
(there are no other possibilities as both 5 and 3 are not divisible further).
The smaller of the two sums (15+1; 5+3) is 5+3=8.
The least possible sum of a and b is 8.
Answer is 17.
Both values are given where:
a = 7 and b = 3
Substitute the values into the given expression.
( 2 x 7 ) + 3
14 + 3 = 17
Hope it helps :]
