Question 812159: You must form an equation and solve it to the remaining application problems. Oh, and don't forget to clearly define your variable(s). Please write your answers in complete sentences.
The product of two consecutive even integers is 20 more than the square of the smaller number.

x = smaller integer
x(x+2) = 20 + x^2
x^2 + 2x = x^2 + 20
2x = 20
x = 10
The smaller integer is 10 and the larger integer is 12.
