Question

. The product of two integers is 144. If one of them is -12, find the other,​

Answer 1

Answer:

Your two equations are: x + y = 144

and 2x -3y = 63

Multiply the first equation by 3: 3x + 3y = 432

Add the second equation 2x - 3y = 63

The result is 5x =495

Divide both sides by 5

So x=99 so if 99 + y = 144 then y = 144 - 99 or 45

Check: 99 + 45 = 144

2(99) - 3(45) = 198 - 135 + 63
