Multiply to result in 3:
\n" ); document.write( "-1 & -3
\n" ); document.write( "1 & 3\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Add the two numbers to result in -4:
\n" ); document.write( "Only ONE of those simple choices works.
\n" ); document.write( "-1 and -3.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "---\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If desired:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "two numbers x and -4-x.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%28-4-x%29=3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-x%5E2-4x=3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-x%5E2-4x-3=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2%2B4x%2B3=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x%2B1%29%28x%2B3%29=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"system%28x=-1%2Cor%2Cx=-3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "but the two numbers will be -1 and -3.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
