3+2=5

Catherine Vega · Answer 2

Answer: 9 and - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

9 and 4 are both factors of 36, however we want to multiply to - 36 so one of them must be a negative.

The two must also add up to 5, so that means - 9 and 4 would not work as those would add to - 5, leaving 9 and - 4 left as the answer.
