Find two numbers that multiply to 16 and also add to -8

-4,-4

Step-by-step explanation:

let the numbers be x and y.

x+y=-8

y=-x-8

xy=16

x(-x-8)=16

-x²-8x=16

x²+8x+16=0

x²+4x+4x+16=0

x(x+4)+4(x+4)=0

(x+4)(x+4)=0

x=-4,-4

4 & 3

step-by-step explanation:

factor of 108=2×2×3×3×3=2×2×3^3=the number is 4 because 2 only occurs 2 times and 2×2=4 and factor of 2187=3^3×3^3×3=the number is 3 because 3 onlyvoccur 1 time.
