✔✔heya here is ur answer!!
__________^_____________
________________________
let ua take the numbers as x and y.
given , x× y = -18 and x/y = -2
=> x = -2y
substitute x in x×y = -18
=> -2y×y = -18
=> -2y^2 = -18
=> y^2 = -18/-2
=> y^2 = 9
=> y = 3
substitute y in eqn
=> x×3 = -18
=> x = -18/3
=> x = -6
THANK YOU ✌✌
HOPE IT HELPS YOU ☺☺☺

Let the numbers be x and y.
Given that product of two integers is -18.
xy = -18
x = -18/y ------ (1)
Given that Quotient of two numbers is -2.
= > (x/y) = (-2)
= > (-18/y)/y = -2
= > -18/y^2 = -2
= > -18 = -2y^2
= > y^2 = 9
= > y = +3,-3 ----- (1)
When y = +3:
x = -18/y
x = -18/3
x = -6.
When y = -3:
= > x = -18/-3
= > x = 6.
Therefore, the integers are : 6,3 and -6,-3 (or) 6,-3 and -6,3
Hope this helps!
