Let x and y be the 2 integers.

Then  x = 4y - 2

and xy = 90

Substitute for x in the second equation:-

(4y - 2)y = 90

4y^2 - 2y - 90 = 0

2y^2 - y - 45 = 0

(2y + 9)(y - 5) = 0

so y = 5    ( as it is an integer)

and x =  = 90/5 = 18


Answer:-  The 2 integers are 5 and 18.

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

28 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Adena, Julius, and Tia volunteered to read to children at the public library.

Let us represent, the number of hours worked by

Adena = x

Julius = y

Tia = z

Julius worked two hours less than Tia.

y = z - 2

z = y + 2

Adena worked twice as many hours as Julius.

x = 2y

Altogether they worked 58 hours.

x + y + z = 58.... Equation 1

We substitute 2y for x and y + 2 for z in Equation 1

2y + y + y + 2 = 58

4y + 2 = 58

Collect like terms

4y = 58 - 2

4y = 56

y = 56/4

y = 14

We are the find the number of hours Adena worked which is represented by x

Note that:

x = 2y

y = 14, hence,

x = 2 × 14

x = 28 hours

Therefore, the number of hours Adena worked is 28 hours
