Take a look at the image below.
Alright. -2-(-4) = -2 + 4 because a negative and a negative equals to a positive[(-2-(-4)]. It would look like: Put a dot on -2, then move your dot 4 units to the right, which is +2.
1L=1000mL
2800 mL=2.8L
If she needs 3.5 L, she currently has 2.8L,
so 3.5-2.8=0.7 L more or .7x1000=700 more mL
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
