You can put this solution on YOUR website!
THe 2 consectuive integers are, x and x+1
\n" ); document.write( "(x)(x+1)-20(x+1)=442
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2%2Bx-20x-20=442\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2-19x-462=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Solve that you get x=33
\n" ); document.write( "33+1=34
\n" ); document.write( "Hence, the two consectuive integers are 33 and 34.
