Answer:

60 and 62

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer we need to set up our problem.

For the two consecutive even integers we can call them x and x+2, as adding 2 to x will give us the next even number.

Then we form our equation:

x+x+2=122

Since we have two x we can combine them into a single term

2x+2=122

We then subtract 2 from both sides

2x=120

Divide by 2

x=60

Find the second number by inserting it into

x+2

60+2=62

Answer:

If the numbers were the same, they'd both be 61

So, try 60 and 62.

x + x+2 = 122

2x = 120

x = 60

Hope that helps!

The difference between two integers is 8 and their product is 65. Assume that the larger of the two numbers is x. Write a quadra
zzz [600]

A quadratic equation in standard form that can be used to determine the value of x is x^{2} - 8x - 65 = 0.

The Factor of the equation from Part B is (x - 13)(x + 5)  and the possible solutions to the equation is x = 13 or -5.

The value for the second number is 5

<h3>Word Problem Leading To Quadratic Equation.</h3>

The general formula for quadratic equation in a in standard form is

ax^{2} + bx + c = 0

Given that the  difference between two integers is 8

Let the two integers = x and y,

and their product is 65. If the larger of the two numbers is x. Then,

x - y = 8 and xy = 65

Since we are looking for the value of x, make y the subject of formula in the first equation.

y = x - 8

Substitute y in the second equation.

x(x - 8) = 65

x^{2} - 8x - 65 = 0

x^{2} - 13x + 5x - 65 = 0

(x - 13)(x + 5) = 0

x = 13 or -5

We will ignore -5 since x is the larger number.

To get y Substitute x in the second equation.

xy = 65

13y = 65

y = 65/13

y = 5

Therefore, a quadratic equation in standard form that can be used to determine the value of x is x^{2} - 8x - 65 = 0. The Factor of the equation from Part B is (x - 13)(x + 5)  and the possible solutions to the equation is x = 13 or -5. The value for the second number is 5
