Question

Find two integers whose sum is -12 and product is 35

Answer 1

-5;-7

Explanation:

Start with the product. 35 is either 35x1, 7x5, or the product of their opposites. 35 and 1 doesn't work for the sum, neither does 7 and 5. Let's go negative. -35 and -1 gives -36, so it has to be -7 and -5, which is indeed, correct.
