[2.05] Choose the equation that could be used to find two consecutive integers whose sum is 69.

n + (n + 2) = 69
n + (n + 1) = 69
n − (n + 1) = 69

anonymous · Answer

i would go with $n + (n + 1) = 69$

anonymous · Answer

although i would solve in my head, rather than use an equation

anonymous · Answer

haha. i reckon you should go on a holiday satellite...have you maxed smartscore?

anonymous · Answer

no it is not smart, it is common sense
35 and 36 is too big, try 34 and 35

anonymous · Answer

consecutive integers is 1,2    2,3 etc  -2,-1...so we would choose

n+(n+1)=69 because it is following the same process as our previous example...
