let the integers be x & x+2
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "x2=10(x+2)+4
\n" ); document.write( "x^2=10x+20+4
\n" ); document.write( "x^2=10x+24
\n" ); document.write( "x^2-10x-24=0
\n" ); document.write( "x^2-12x+2x-24=0
\n" ); document.write( "x(x-12)+2(x-12)=0
\n" ); document.write( "(x-12)(x+2)=0
\n" ); document.write( "x=12 OR x=-2( ignore)
\n" ); document.write( "the integers are 12 14
