Hope that helped! =)

the complete question is

The sum of the square of 2 number is 34. The first number is one less than twice the 2nd number. Find the number


Let

2x-1-------> the first number

x------->the second number


we know that

\((2x-1)^{2} +x^{2} =34\\ 4x^{2} -4x+1+x^{2} =34\\ 5x^{2} -4x-33=0\\ 5x^{2} -15x+11x-33=0\\ 5x*(x-3)+11*(x-3)=0\\ (5x+11)*(x-3)=0\)


therefore

\(x=3\\ 2x-1=5\)


the answer is

the numbers are

\(3,5\)
