Find two consecutive integers whose sum is -13. *

Answer 1

Respuesta:

The consecutive integers are -7 and -6

Explicación paso a paso:

A integer = x

The consecutive integer = x + 1

The sum of two consecutive integers:

x + (x + 1) = - 13

2x + 1 = -13

2x = -13 - 1

2x = -14

x = -14/2 = -7

A integer is -7 and the consecutive integer:

x + 1 = - 7 + 1 = - 6
