Question 926429: Two integers have a difference of -30. When the larger integer is increased by 3 and added to the square of the smaller integer, the result is 189

x - y = -30
x + 3 + y^2 = 189

Rearrange the first equation to get x = y - 30. Substitute this into the second equation.

x + 3 + y^2 = 189
(y-30) + 3 + y^2 = 189
y^2 + y - 27 = 189
y^2 + y - 216 = 0

This equation has no integer solutions.
