Two consecutive odd integers have a difference of 2. If you let the smaller one of them be x, the other one is x + 2.
Their sum is -36, so add x and x + 2, and set equal to -36. Then solve for x to find the smaller one. Finally, 2 more than x is the greater of the two integers.
x + x + 2 = -36
2x + 2 = -36
2x = -38
x = -19
The smaller one of the two integers is -19.
x + 2 = -19 + 2 = -17
The greater of the two integers is -17.
Answer: The integers are -19 and -17.
Answer: -5 and 2

Answer:
3.5p ≤ 40
Step-by-step explanation:
The inequality that best describes this problem is 3.5p ≤ 40;
Given parameters:
Total amount with me = $40
Cost per package of hot dog = $3.5
Unknown;
The inequality that represents the problem = ?
Solution:
p is the number of hotdogs that can be bought.
So, total hotdog that can be bought if each hotdog cost $3.5 per box is;
p x 3.5
Now,
this will equal the total amount at hand;
p x 3.5 ≤ 40
3.5p ≤ 40
