What two numbers multiply to -583 and add up to 582?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -583 and add up to 582?"

The answer to your question is:

-1 and 583

Below we illustrate and prove that -1 and 583 multiply to -583 and add up to 582:

-1 × 583 = -583
-1 + 583 = 582

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

x² + 582x - 583 = 0

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

(x - 1 ) (x + 583)

To summarize, since -1 and 583 multiply to -583 and add up 582, you know that the following is true:

x² + 582x - 583 = (x - 1 ) (x + 583)
