Answer:
The integers could be 21 and 22
or -22 and -21
Step-by-step explanation:
If two integers are consecutive, then it means that their difference is just 1
if we have the initial value as x , then the other value could be x-1 or x + 1
let us go with x-1
So the product here is;
x(x-1) = 462
x^2-x = 462
x^2 -x -462 = 0
x^2 -22x + 21x - 462 = 0
x(x-22) + 21(x-22) = 0
(x + 21)(x-22) = 0
x = -21 or x = 22
If x = -21
x -1 = -21-1 = -22
if x = 22
x -1 = 22-1 = 21
