If sum of numbers (a) +(b) is 1419 and
(a) and (b) are <span>neighbors , whe have:
a + b = 1419 and b-a = 1;
<=> </span>a + b = 1419 and <span>a = b-1 ;
so we have b-1 + b = 1419 <=> 2b = 1420 <=> b=710 and a = 709
Answer: 710 and 709

Step-by-step explanation:
The equations that could be used to determine the number of chicken wings and sliders in the combination meal is:
75w + 250s = 800
w = 2s
Where:
w = chicken wings
s = sliders
The two equations derived from the question are known as simultaneous equations. Both equations have to be solved together in order to determine the number of wings and sliders.
The total calories of wings = number of wings x calories of each wing
75 x w = 75w
The total calories of sliders = number of sliders x calories of each sliders
250 x s = 250s
