The product of two consecutive odd integers is 77 more than twice the larger integer.find the integers.

Answer :

I would say 33. Larger interget is 3. 
3 X 2=6 
It's 33, or technically, 11. But go with 33

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive odd integers increase by 2 so:

Let the first integer be y,

The Second will be y+2

Therefore y×y+2=77+2(y+2)

y²+2y=77+2y+4

Move all the terms to one side NB:when the terms move over they change thier sign

y²+2y-81-2y=0

y²+2y-2y-81=0

y²-81=0

y²=81

Take square root

Y=9
