X*y=72
x = 5y-2
x=72/y
72/y=5y-2
72=5y^2-2y
5y^2 -2y - 72 = 0
(5y+18)(y-4)=0
y = -18/5 discard
or y = 4
4x=72
x=18
(18,4)

Answer:
m^2-3m-180=0
m=15
Step-by-step explanation:
greater integer = m
small integer = n
we know that m = n+3 or n = m-3
we also know that n*m = 180
replace n for m-3
(m-3)*m=180
or
m^2-3m-180 = 0
(m-15)(m+12)=0
so m = 15 or -12, but since problem states positive, m=15
