Answer:
this is as test
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be larger integer so x-3 is the smaller
so x^2+ x-3 = 87
x^2 +x -90=0 and factor
(x-9)(x+10)=0
x=9 or x=-10 but x must be positive
so x=9 and smaller number is 6
X= my age
500-3x=230
500-3x-230=230-230
270-3x=0
270-3x+3x=0+3x
270=3x
270/3=3x/3
x=90
you are 90 years old
