\n" ); document.write( "The difference between two positive integers is 3. If the smaller is added to the square of the larger, the sum is 107. Find the integers.
\n" ); document.write( "

Let smaller number be S
\n" );
document.write( "Then larger = S + 3
\n" );
document.write( "We then get: 
\n" );
document.write( "
\n" );
document.write( "
\n" );
document.write( "(S - 7)(S + 14) = 0
\n" );
document.write( "Smaller number or           OR         S = - 14 (ignore)
\n" );
document.write( "Larger number:  \n" );
document.write( "

\n" );
