i believe that the answer was the sum was -2/3 and the product was 1/9. It was very simple to find the sum if you knew the formula. I then used b^2-4ac to find the k value. I plugged in the values and got k to equal -1/3. I then put -1/3 over -3 an got 1/9. To check this answer i found the roots of the equation using the k value. I got both roots to equal -1/3. So therefore the sum and product would make sense.
