Let's take our two integers, we'll call them x and y.

We're told:

y = x + 1

2x - y = 68

We can take the first equation and substitute it for y in the second one, then solve for x:

2x - (x + 1) = 68

x - 1 = 68

x = 69

We already know that y = x + 1, so we can say:

x = 69, y = 70

What are two consecutive integers whose sum equals -30.03?

Let's represent the two consecutive integers as x and x + 1. The sum of these two integers is x + (x + 1) = 2x + 1. We are given that this sum equals -30.03, so 2x + 1 = -30.03. Solving for x, we get x = (-30.03 - 1) / 2 = -31.03 / 2 = -15.515. Therefore, the two consecutive integers are -15 and -14.
