Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two consecutive positive even integers such that the square of the first is 364 more than five times a second. What are the two numbers?
Two consecutive year positive integers are represented by
x and x + 1
First integer = x
Second integer = y
There are two consecutive positive even integers such that the square of the first is 364 more than five times a second.
This is represented mathematically as:
x² = 364 + 5(x + 1)
x² = 364 + 5x + 5
x² -5x -5 - 364
x² - 5x - 369
