Answer:
First nunber: -17.5
Secind number: -16.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of two consecutive integers is -34, Find the two integers
Let x = first number
X+1 = second number
-34= to get
X+x+1=-34
Add x
2x+1=-34
Subtract 1 both sides
2x= -34-1
Subtract -34-1
2x= -35
Divide 2 both sides
2x/2=-35/2
Your first number
X= -17.5
Now add your result to second equation to find your second number
X+1=second number
-17.5+1= second number
-16.5=second number
Now add your furst and second number to see if you get -34
-17.5+(-16.5)= -34
-34=-34
It checks
