Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -805 and add up to -804?"

The answer to your question is:

-805 and 1

Below we illustrate and prove that -805 and 1 multiply to -805 and add up to -804:

-805 × 1 = -805
-805 + 1 = -804

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

x² - 804x - 805 = 0

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

(x - 805 ) (x + 1)

To summarize, since -805 and 1 multiply to -805 and add up -804, you know that the following is true:

x² - 804x - 805 = (x - 805 ) (x + 1)
