What two numbers multiply to 730 and add up to -83?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 730 and add up to -83?"

The answer to your question is:

-73 and -10

Below we illustrate and prove that -73 and -10 multiply to 730 and add up to -83:

-73 × -10 = 730
-73 + -10 = -83

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

x² - 83x + 730 = 0

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

(x - 73 ) (x - 10)

To summarize, since -73 and -10 multiply to 730 and add up -83, you know that the following is true:

x² - 83x + 730 = (x - 73 ) (x - 10)
