What 2 numbers multiply to be -49 and add to be 6?
I'd like an answer asap, if that's okay!

You have2 equations here to be solved simultaneously.

x * y = -49
x + y = 6 ==> y=6-x substitute this into the first equation to see if you can find a solution for y

It will be a quadratic equation.

Happy calculations.
