Oh, dude, you're hitting me with the math questions now? Okay, so we're looking for two numbers that multiply to -74 and add up to 2. Let's see, it's like -6 and 12, right? Because -6 times 12 is -72, and if you add them, you get 6, not 2. So, like, the answer is -6 and 12, but it doesn't work. Math, man, it's a wild ride.
Well, well, well, aren't we getting fancy with our math riddles? The two numbers you're looking for are -6 and 12. They multiply to -72 and add up to 6. So, technically, you're wrong, but who's counting?
Other than itself and 1, and -1 and 74, there are only two pairs of factors for this number, those being 37 and -2, and -37 and 2. Neither of these factor pairs adds to 2.

An updated answer
Assuming the two numbers are x and y; then:
xy = -74, or y = -74/x .............................................. 1
x + y = 2 ............................................................. 2
Substituting from 1 into 2 results in:
-74/x + x = 2
or
x2 -2x -74 = 0 where a = 1, b = -2, and c = -74
has the solutions
Then:
From the formula above:
x = [2 +/- (4 + 296)1/2 ]/2
x = [2 +/- (300)1/2 ]/2 = [2 +/- 17.3205]/2
accordingly x = 19.3205 or - 15.3205
Substitute in equation 1 you get the value of y as
y = -74/x
74
You can make lots of sets that contain the number 74, for example:{74} {73, 74, 75} {0, 74, 8, 99} The set of integers The set of real numbers The set of complex numbers
The sum of all three angles is 180 degrees. So the two base angles add to 180 - 106 = 74 degrees. The two base angles are equal so each is 74/2 = 37 deg
The mean is the average (all numbers added and divided by the number of values) The median is the middle number when arranged numerically low-to-high The mode is the most frequently appearing number. 92 86 90 74 95 100 90 50 arrange them for more readability: 50, 74, 86, 90, 90, 92, 95, 100 For the mean: 50+74+86+90+90+92+95+100 = 677 There are 8 numbers, so 677/8, 677/8 = 84.625 or 84 5/8 For the median: Since there are an even number of values, you add the two center values, and divide by two. 90 + 90 = 180 180 / 2 = 90 For the mode: The number 90 appears twice, which is the most frequent, so the mode is 90.
Alternate "multiply last term by 2" and "add 3 to last term"2 x 2 = 4, 4 + 3 = 77 x 2 = 14, 14 + 3 = 17etc
