Question 426954: 6x^2 - 7x - 5/ 3-x
(3x – 5)(2x + 1)/ 3 – x
After this point I have no idea what I'm doing.
The more i do it, the more I seem to drift from the rules of how to solve.
Can it be simplifies more than this?

Question 427847: Find two integers whose sum is 12 and whose squares differ by 24.
Here's what I tried.
x + y = 12 , x^2 - y^2 = 24
x = -y + 12
(-y + 12)^2 - y^2 = 24
y^2 - 24y + 24 - y^2 = 24
-24y + 24 = 24
-24y = 0
y = 0
x + 0 = 12
x = 12
But then it won't match the other problem?
