It is -10
The integers are -5 and -3: Where the first integer is x (and the second is x+2) x+(x+2) = -8 x+x+2 = -8 2x + 2 = -8 2x = -10 x = -5 and x+2 = -3
Let's denote the two integers as x and y. We know that x + y = -9 and x - y = 5. By solving these two equations simultaneously, we can find that the two integers are -7 and -2. This is because -7 + (-2) = -9 and -7 - (-2) = 5.
The formula to sum a series of numbers is: sum = 1/2 x number_of_numbers x (first_number + last_number) So to sum the integers 5 to 500: From 5 to 500 there are 500 - 5 + 1 = 496 integers, so sum = 1/2 x 496 x (5 + 500) = 125240
7, 8, 9 Let x be the smallest of the three integers; thus, the integers are x, x+1, x+2. From the problem, we get: 2x=(x+2)+5=x+7 2x-x=7 x=7
