The. sum of two consecutive. integers. is 17

1 answer:

6 0

X+(x+1)=17
So 2x+1=17
Which means 2x=16
Which then means x=8
But you still need the second number, which is x+1, so 8+1=9.
This means that the consecutive numbers are 8 and 9.

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

$\left(\frac{3}{7}x+9\right)-\left(\frac{2}{7}x-3\right)\\\\=\frac{3}{7}x+9-\frac{2}{7}x-(-3)\\\\=\frac{3}{7}x+9-\frac{2}{7}x+3\\\\=(\frac{3}{7}x-\frac{2}{7}x)+(9+3)\\\\=\frac{3-2}{7}x+12\\\\=\boxed{\frac{1}{7}x+12}$
