I’m the box it gives me the numbers are -9, -5, -1, 5, 9

Answer 1

`A=5,B=9\\\\or\ A=-9,B=-5`

Explanation:

`A(3-x)=-2x+B\\\\Given\ x=2\\\\Substitute\ the\ value\ of\ x\\\\A(3-2)=-2* 2+B\\\\A=-4+B\\\\A=B-4\\\\So\ the\ value\ of\ A\ is\ 4\ less\ than\ the\ value\ of\ B.\\\\When\ B=9\Rightarrow A=9-4=5\\\\When\ B=-5\Rightarrow B=-5-4=-9\\\\Hence\ A=5,B=9\\\\or\ A=-9,B=-5`
