Answer:

38 and 39

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the two integers are consecutive, then one is one larger than the other. Therefore, lets call them x and x+1. We can now set up the following equation:

x+(x+1)=77

2x+1=77

2x=76

x=38

x+1=39

Hope this helps!

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

5x + 3(x - 5) = 6x + 2x - 15

Use the distributive property to expand the parenthesis

5x + 3x - 15 = 8x - 15 ← collect like terms on the left side

8x - 15 = 8x - 15

Both sides are equal, hence the equation has an infinite number of solutions.
