The sum of two consecutive integers is -23.

Let the larger number = x

smaller number = x - 1

Sum = -23

=> x + x - 1 = -23

=> 2x - 1 = -23

=> 2x = -23 + 1 = -22

=> x = -22/2

=> x = -11

Larger number is -11

Two consecutive numbers: x and x+1

So

x+x+1=-23

We solve the equation

2x=-24

x=-12 and x+1=-11

Indeed -12+-11=-23

Now the largest of -12 and -11 is :

-11

The function, B (x), models the estimated tuition cost where x is the number
zepelin [54]

The expression that completes the function b(x)​ is b(x) = 33741 * (1.028)^x

<h3>How to determine the expression of b(x)?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Initial value, a = 33741  

Rate, r = 2.8%

The cost of tuition each year since 2015 is represented as

B(x) = a * (1 + r)^x

This gives

B(x) = 33741 * (1 + 2.8%)^x

Evaluate

b(x) = 33741 * (1.028)^x

Hence, the expression that completes the function b(x)​ is b(x) = 33741 * (1.028)^x
