Question

What are two numbers that multiply to -30 and add to -1?

Answer 1

5 and -6

Explanation:

5 • -6 = -30

5 + (-6) = 5 - 6 = -1

A tip I can give is to write out the multiples and then add or subtract the numbers, especially with smaller numbers like 30. For example:

1 and -30 = -29

2 and -15 = -13

3 and -10 = -7

5 and -6 = -1

I hope this helps!
