The difference between two positive integers is 44. if the smaller is added to the square of the larger, the sum is 376376. find the integers.

Respuesta :

Let a be the bigger number and b the smaller.


So a-b=44


and a^2+b=376376


(44+b)^2+b=376376

b^2+89b -374440=0


Solve for b and you get a. Are you sure it is 376376 not 376?
