What two numbers multiply to 736 and add up to -100?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 736 and add up to -100?"

The answer to your question is:

-92 and -8

Below we illustrate and prove that -92 and -8 multiply to 736 and add up to -100:

-92 × -8 = 736
-92 + -8 = -100

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

x² - 100x + 736 = 0

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

(x - 92 ) (x - 8)

To summarize, since -92 and -8 multiply to 736 and add up -100, you know that the following is true:

x² - 100x + 736 = (x - 92 ) (x - 8)
