Two positive integers have a product of 176. One integer is 5 less than the other integer. Which equation can be used to find the value of x, the greater integer?

Let x be the greater integer. Since the other integer is 5 less, it is x − 5. Their product is 176, so the equation is x(x − 5) = 176, which is choice C.
