Question 949518: the difference of the squares of two positive consecutive even integers is 76. Find the integers Use the fact that, if x represents an even integer, then x+2 represents the next consecutive even integer. Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! the difference of the squares of two positive consecutive even integers is 76. Find the integers
-------------------
(x+2)^2 - x^2 = 76
4x + 4 = 76
x = 18
--> 18 & 20
