Take any negative integers, say -5 and -10, their sum is -15 which is smaller than both of them. We could have used 0 as well, so I should have said any non-positive integers. To see that is does not work with positive integers, take 5 and 10 whose sum is 15 which is BIGGER than either one.
For a pair of integers (a) and (b), if their sum (a + b) is smaller than one of the integers (let's say (a)), it implies that (b) must be negative. Specifically, if (a + b < a), then (b) must be less than 0. For example, if (a = 5) and (b = -3), their sum (5 - 3 = 2), which is smaller than (5) but greater than (-3).
No.
The integers are -11 and -10.
17 (odd integer) + 19 (odd integer) = 36 17 and 19 are consecutive odd integers.
The only integers that have reciprocals that are also integers are 1 and -1. This is because the reciprocal of an integer ( n ) is ( \frac{1}{n} ), which is only an integer when ( n ) is either 1 or -1. Therefore, there are exactly two integers whose reciprocals are also integers.

An algebraic integer is a number which is a root of a monic polynomial whose coefficients are integers.
No.
The integers are 20 and 22.

no solution. If you solve for x (where x is the first integer) the answer is a fraction, which is not an integer.
That can never happen, and there's no solution.
No possible solution.The sum of any two odd integers is an even integer.
Two positive integers whose sum is 14 includes 6 and 8
17 , 19 , 21 and 23 are the odd integers whose sum is 80 and the least integer is 17
