two positive integers are 3 units apart on a number line. their product is 180. wich equation can be used to solve for m, the greater integer?​

m^2-3m-180=0

m=15

Step-by-step explanation:

greater integer = m

small integer = n

we know that m = n+3 or n = m-3

we also know that n*m = 180

replace n for m-3

(m-3)*m=180

or

m^2-3m-180 = 0

(m-15)(m+12)=0

so m = 15 or -12, but since problem states positive, m=15
