difference of 19 so when you subtract = 19
product of -48
question is what are the factors of 48 such that when you subtract the difference is 19?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So i just subtract
OpenStudy (triciaal):
let the numbers be a and b then ab = -48 and a- b = 19
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Not Getting It
OpenStudy (triciaal):
when you subtract b from a the difference is 19
when you multiply a times b = -48
a is a positive number and b is 19 less than a
what are the factors of 48?

So Is It B

The factor with a greater absolute value is positive. so the greater is +16
the difference is 19 16 - -3 = 19
sum = 16 + -3 = 13
