Please solve the problem. The product of two consecutive integers is 5 more than their sum. Find the integers.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = first consecutive integer
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "x+1 = second consecutive integer
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "x(x+1) = 5 + x + x+1
\n" ); document.write( "x^2+x = 6 + 2x
\n" ); document.write( "x^2-x-6 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "(x-3)(x+2) = 0
\n" ); document.write( "x = {-2, 3}
\n" ); document.write( ".
