Answer:

Sum= -12

Product=32

Explanation:


x^2+12x+32=0

By factorization, we get


x^2+4x+8x+32=0\\x(x+4)+8(x+4)=0\\(x+4)(x+8)=0\\

Therefore, the roots of the equation are = -4,-8

Sum of the roots =
\alpha+\beta =(-b)/(a)


\alpha +\beta=
-8-4=-12

Product of the roots=
\alpha \beta =(c)/(a)


\alpha \beta =8*4=32
