Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -486 and add up to 9?"

The answer to your question is:

-18 and 27


Below we illustrate and prove that -18 and 27 multiply to -486 and add up to 9:

-18 × 27 = -486
-18 + 27 = 9

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

x2 + 9x - 486 = 0

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

(x - 18 ) (x + 27)

To summarize, since -18 and 27 multiply to -486 and add up 9, you know that the following is true:

x2 + 9x - 486 = (x - 18 ) (x + 27)
