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
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
He chose the names on the voter registration list radomly
Simply it as follows:
1 + 39 = 40
2 + 38 = 40 etc
18 + 22 = 40
19 + 21 = 40
There are 19 of these plus 40 itself . . .therefore 20 of them
20 x 40 = 800
And finally the last number not used, 20
Therefore 800 + 20 = 820
If you need to solve for y
10y-12=4
10y=12+4
10y=16
y=16/10=8/5=1 3/5 or 1.6
