-76 and 76 whose product is -5776.
11
find two positive numbers whose product is a maximum. 1.) the sum is s.
-5 * 5 = -25
Suppose the smaller of the two numbers is x. Then the other number is x+22. Their product is x*(x+22) = x2 + 22x This has a minimum when 2x = -22 or x = -11. When x = 11, the two numbers are -11 and 11 with a product of -121.

-14 and 14, giving a product of -196.
Suppose the smaller of the two numbers is x. Then the other number is x+22. Their product is x*(x+22) = x2 + 22x This has a minimum when 2x = -22 or x = -11. When x = 11, the two numbers are -11 and 11 with a product of -121.
Suppose the smaller of the two numbers is x. Then the larger is x + 16 and their product is x*(x+16) = x2 + 16x This has its minimum when 2x = -16 or x = -8 When x = -8, the two numbers are -8 and 8 and their product is -64.
