Hi! I hope this helps and have a great day.
Let the Integer be x then its consecutive number will be x+1,
So, x+x+1=139,
2*x=138
x=69
The integers are 69,70
To find a, you need to isolate/get the variable "a" by itself in the equation:
Multiply the inverse of 1/2, which is 2, to get rid of the fraction
a - 7 = 66 Add 7 on both sides to get "a" by itself
a - 7 + 7 = 66 + 7
a = 73
Answer:
x = -8/b
Step-by-step explanation:
2bx-bx= -8
bx = -8
Divide by b since b is nonzero
x = -8/b
