The number that multiplies to 16 and adds to -4 can be found by solving a system of equations. Let the two numbers be x and y. We have the equations xy = 16 and x + y = -4. By substituting y = -4 - x into the first equation, we get x(-4 - x) = 16. Simplifying this equation gives us x^2 + 4x - 16 = 0. Solving this quadratic equation yields x = -2 and x = 8. Therefore, the two numbers are -2 and -6.

if the qustion was phrased as this WHAT NUMBERS MULTIPLIES TO 16 AND ADDS UPTO TOP -4 the answer would, There are no such numbers.

The factors of 16 are as follows

4*4 4+4=8

-4*-4 -4+-4=-8

16*1 16+1=17

-16*-1 -16+-1=-17

therefore there are no such factors
