Answer:
Explanation:
we are given two conditions
- two integers whos product is -12
- two integers whos sum is 1
let the two integers be x and y respectively according to the first condition
according to the second condition:
now notice that we have two variables therefore ended up with a simultaneous equation so to solve the simultaneous equation cancel x from both sides of the second equation which yields:
now substitute the got value of y to the first equation which yields:
distribute:
add 12 in both sides:
rearrange it to standard form:
divide both sides by -1:
factor:
by Zero product property we acquire:
solve the equations for x therefore,
when x is -3 then y is
simplify
when x is 4 y is
simplify:
hence,
