Answer (3)

the answer for first is -4 and -7 (-4 + -7) = 11 , -4 x -7 = 28
The answer to the second is -17 and -3 (-17+-3) = 20, -17 x -3 = 51
The answer to the third is -9 and 4 ( -9 + 4) = -5 , -9 x 4 = -36
The answer is obtained by hit and trial method and there are many other algebraic ways to solve this. Since it was a bit easy one, i thought to apply the hit and trial method.
