Answer 1

Answer:

-2, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

yeah that's it I don't have any explanation or formula

Answer 2

let the numbers be x and y

xy = -6

x + y = 1

from x + y = 1

y = 1 - x

x(1 - x) = -6

x - x² + 6 = 0

-x² + x + 6 = 0

on solving,

x = -2 or x = 3

y = 1 - (-2) = 3

y = 1 - 3 = -2

x1 = -2, y1 = 3.

x2 = 3, y2 = -2.
