What two numbers multiply to -54 and add up to 3?




Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -54 and add up to 3?"

The answer to your question is:

-6 and 9


Below we illustrate and prove that -6 and 9 multiply to -54 and add up to 3:

-6 × 9 = -54
-6 + 9 = 3

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

x2 + 3x - 54 = 0

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

(x - 6 ) (x + 9)

To summarize, since -6 and 9 multiply to -54 and add up 3, you know that the following is true:

x2 + 3x - 54 = (x - 6 ) (x + 9)
