Plug the x value which is 2 back to the x and solve.
I gave you two answers because I wasn’t sure if the question was (x^2) - 2 or x^2-2.
Those two functions look similar but is totally different so keep that in mind.
Hope you have a victorious day!
So i think here you would FOIL. so -5x^2+10x-5x+10 and then combine like terms :)

The positive integer is 6.
The consecutive integers are 6 and 7.
7y+11+7y+11+7y+11=180(A.S.P)
21y+33=180
21y=180-33
21y=147
y=147/21
y=7
y=7
