You can put this solution on YOUR website! two integers. One is 7 less than a number, and the other is 2 greater than the same number.
:
"a.Write expressions for the two numbers.
Let n = "the number"
then
(n-7) = one integer
and
(n+2) = the other integer
:
b.Write a polynomial expression for the product of the numbers.
(n-7)*(n+2) = n^2 + 2n - 7s - 14 = n^2 - 5n - 14
