Question

(a) Find the integer whose product with –1 is 72.

(b) If x × (–1) = –27, then what is the value of integer x?

(c) Find a pair of integers whose product is –136.​

Answer 1

Given: Three questions

To find:   (a) Find the integer whose product with –1 is 72.

                (b) If x × (–1) = –27, then what is the value of integer x?

                (c) Find a pair of integers whose product is –136.​

Solution:

• Now first question is: the integer whose product with –1 is 72.

• Let the integer be x, then:

               (-1) × x = 72

               x = -72

• Second question is: If x × (–1) = –27, then what is the value of integer x?

               x × (–1) = –27

               x = 27

• Third question is: a pair of integers whose product is –136.​

               17 x (-8) = -136

Answer:

          So the answers are: a. x = -72, b. x = 27 and c. 17 x (-8) = -136

Answer 2

Answer:

If X x (-1)= . -27

X = -27. ÷

X = 27. - - = +
