Is one of the answer choices -42, because that would be my answer.
The factors are 17 and 3.
The given conditions are two factors of the first number, 51 such that their product is 51 and the sum is the second number 20.
let say, the factors are x and y.
therefore, we can write, x.y = 51 ... (1) and x + y = 20 .... (2)
Putting the value of x from equation (2) in equation (1) we get,
(20 - y).y = 51
or, 20y - y² = 51
or, y² - 20y + 51 = 0
or, y = 17, 3
then x = 3,17
Therefore, The factors are 17 and 3.

What’s the number then I could help
N+2 because n is the smallest number
The two base angles of an isoceles triangle are equal so we can conclude that
2x - 20 = x + 8
Now we just need to solve for x:
2x - 20 + 20 = x + 8 + 20
2x = x + 28
2x - x = x + 28 - x
x = 28
So, angle B = x + 8 which is 28 + 8 = 36°
