Answer:
You find if their less than or greater than
Step-by-step explanation:
when dividing or multiplying negative numbers switch sign.
Yes, Juan is correct only equal groups can be multiplied.
The simplification is 20x-15 because 2 times 6x is 12 x and plus the 8 x its 20 then 2 times -5 is -10 plus the other - 5 is -15
The integers are 12, 14.
Solution:
Let the even consecutive integers be x and x + 2.
Lesser number = x and Greater number = x + 2
Lesser number = Half of greater number + 5


To add the numbers, denominators must be same. So multiply 5 by
.


Multiply by 2 on both sides, we get
⇒ 2x = x + 12
Subtract x from both sides.
⇒ x = 12
Lesser number = 12
Greater number = 12 + 2 = 14
Hence the integers are 12, 14.
