LET X & X+1 BE THE 2 INTEGERS.
\n" ); document.write( "X+2(X+1)=38
\n" ); document.write( "X+2X+2=38
\n" ); document.write( "3X=38-2
\n" ); document.write( "3X=36
\n" ); document.write( "X=36/3
\n" ); document.write( "X=12 ANSWER FOR THE SMALLER INTEGER.
\n" ); document.write( "12+1=13 FOR THE SECOND INTEGER.
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF.
\n" ); document.write( "12+2*13=38
\n" ); document.write( "12+26=38
\n" ); document.write( "38=38
\n" ); document.write( "
