What two numbers multiply to -480 and add up to 4?




Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -480 and add up to 4?"

The answer to your question is:

-20 and 24


Below we illustrate and prove that -20 and 24 multiply to -480 and add up to 4:

-20 × 24 = -480
-20 + 24 = 4

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

x2 + 4x - 480 = 0

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

(x - 20 ) (x + 24)

To summarize, since -20 and 24 multiply to -480 and add up 4, you know that the following is true:

x2 + 4x - 480 = (x - 20 ) (x + 24)
