Answer 2

✬ Other Integer = –5 ✬

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

• Product of two integers is 40.
• One integer is –8.

To Find:

• What is the other integer ?

Solution: Let the other integer be x . Therefore,

➟ (First $\times$ Second) integer = 40

$\implies{\rm }$ –8 $\times$ x = 40

$\implies{\rm }$ –8x = 40

$\implies{\rm }$ x = 40/–8

$\implies{\rm }$ x = –5

Hence, the other integer is –5. (Option A is correct)
