integers are x and x + 2, so x + 2 = 2x - 10 ie x = 12.
Integers are 12 and 14

They are (14, 15, 16).
Let x be one integerLet's say it is the bigger one.x-1 must be the other one since they are consecutive.x=2(x-1)+15x=2x+13-x=13x=-13 andx-1, the smaller one is -14Let's check.twice the smaller is -2815 more than -28 is -13 which is the bigger one.So the answer is -14 and -13
The sum of two consecutive integers can not be even unless both are even or both are odd.x+y=70y=4+2xx+(4+2x)=704+3x=703x=70-43x=66x=22y=70-22y=48The two numbers are 22 and 48. 22 is the smaller.
There are two consecutive odd numbers such that five times the smaller plus twice the greater is 25. What is the smaller number?
-10 and -11.

(x+2)=2x+20 x+2=2x+20 x-2x=20-2 -x=18 x=-18 proof -18+2=2*-18+20 -16=-36+20 -16=-16

Nice little problem !Call the consecutive integers ' x ' and ' x+1 '.The sum is [ x + 2(x+1) ] = Ax + 2x + 2 = A3x + 2 = ASubtract 2 from each side:3x = A - 2Divide each side by 3:x = (A-2)/3 and that's the smaller of the two integers.The larger one is (x+1) = (A+1)/3
They are (14, 15, 16).

9 and 10 9 + 2(10) = 29
