Find two consecutive integers whose sum is 113. Which of the following equations could be used to solve the problem?
Let the two integers be x and x + 1, then x + x + 1 = 113 2x + 1 = 113
exactly these i ve wan writing too so what you need to do now again ?
solve this equation for x
@shonyce15 yes ? do you can solve it ?
yes
ok than please do it for medal
x=56
or
Step-by-step explanation: Let two consecutive integers are x and x+1 As per the statement: The sum of two consecutive integers is 113 ⇒x+x+1=113 Like terms are those which have same variable to the same power. Combine like terms in [1] we have; Therefore, the following equations could be used to solve the problem is,
yes 56 is one term and the second one what will be ?
56 + ? = 113
consecutive two integers
2nd one would be 57
56+57=113
