The sum of two consecutive integers is -34, find the two integers

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

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume

number of candles set =x

price of of x candles =p(x)

we are given

a candle maker prices one set of scented candles at $10 and sells an average of 200 sets each week

so, we get point as (200,10)

he finds that when he reduces the price by $1, he then sells 50 more candle sets each week

so, we can find slope

now, we can use point slope form of line

now, we can plug values

we can use point

and find b

now, we can plug it back

and we get

now, we can find revenue

we know that

revenue = price*quantity

so, we get
