The answer to your question is:

-26 and 9


Below we illustrate and prove that -26 and 9 multiply to -234 and add up to -17:

-26 × 9 = -234
-26 + 9 = -17

Are you asking because you are trying to figure out how to factor the following quadratic equation?

x2 - 17x - 234 = 0

If so, the solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:

(x - 26 ) (x + 9)

To summarize, since -26 and 9 multiply to -234 and add up -17, you know that the following is true:

x2 - 17x - 234 = (x - 26 ) (x + 9)
