Consecutive integers are integers that follow one another. For example, 2,3,4,5,etc.... are consecutive integers
So algebraically, consecutive integers follow the form x, x+1, x+2, etc...
Since the sum of two consecutive integers is 239, this means:
x%2Bx%2B1=239
2x%2B1=239 Combine like terms on the left side
2x=239-1Subtract 1 from both sides
2x=238 Combine like terms on the right side
x=%28238%29%2F%282%29 Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x
x=119 Divide
So our first number is x=119
So to find the next number, simply add 1 to it to get 119%2B1=120
Answer: So our two page numbers are 119 and 120
Brother=b
b+9=11
b=2
2=1/5a
10=a
a=10
The answer is 10
Hope this helps :)
I don’t see an attachment for a diagram
Sales tax 11%
11/100 x $92.00
=$10.12
Total cost = x
x= $92.00 + $ 10.12
= $102.12
