What multiplies to 20 and adds up to -10?

Answer 1

Oh, what a happy little math problem we have here! Let's think about this together. The numbers that multiply to 20 and add up to -10 are -2 and -8. When you multiply them, you get 20, and when you add them, you get -10. Isn't that just a lovely solution? Happy math-ing, my friend!

Answer 2

In order to find two numbers that multiply to 20 and add up to -10, we can set up a system of equations. Let's call the two numbers x and y. We have the following equations: xy = 20 and x + y = -10. By solving this system, we can find that the two numbers are -5 and -4, as (-5) * (-4) = 20 and -5 + (-4) = -10.

Answer 3

Well, honey, those two numbers you're looking for are -2 and -8. They multiply to 20 and add up to -10. It's like math with a side of drama!

Answer 4

The factor pairs of 20 are (20,1)(10,2)(5,4)

None of them total -10 or differ by 10.

-20 and 10 are factors of -20 that add up to -10.
