Question

Find three consecutive positive integers such that the sum of square of the first integer and the product of the other two is 92

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the numbers are x,x+1,x+2.

As per the question,

x^2 +(x+1)(x+2) = 46.

i.e. 2x^2 +3x-44 = 0.

Now, By applying quadratic formula, you will get

x= -22/4, 4.

But x can't be negative.

So, Numbers will be 4,5 and 6.
