Let the integers be 'x' and 'x+2'
x + 2 = 2x - 10
x + 2 = 2x -10
x = 2x - 10 -2
x = 2x - 12
x - 2x = -12
-x = -12
x = 12
The two integers are 12 and 14

The closest is c, the correct formulation is x + 2 = 2x - 10.

the two consecutive integers --> y , y+2
we have y + 2 = 2y - 10
so y + 12 = 2y
y = 12
the 2 integers are 12, 14
