Answer: 25 and 26

Step-by-step explanation: This problem states that the sum of two consecutive integers is 51 and it asks us to find the integers. Two consecutive integers can be represented as followed.

X ⇒ first integer

X + 1 ⇒ second integer

Since the sum of our two con consecutive integers is 51, we can set up an equation to represent this.

X + X + 1 = 51

Now, we can simplify on the left side of our equation.

2x + 1 = 51

-1 -1 ← subtract 1 on both sides

2x = 50

÷2 ÷2 ← divide both sides by 2

X = 25

X + 1 = 26

Therefore, our two consecutive integers are 25 and 26.

if you have 89 apples and you take 72 away and buy 14 more and take 12 away then buy 42 more and give them 16 more

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is that there will be 45 remaining apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, you start off with 89 and then you take 72 away, that leaves you with 17 apples. Then, you buy 14 more which brings it up to 31. After that, you give 12 more away which brings your total down to 19. Next, you go out and buy 42 more, which adds up to 61 remaining apples. Finally, you give away 16 more, which brings you to a grand total of, 45 apples left.
