2 consecutive integers....x and x + 1
x + x + 1 = 3x - 1
2x + 1 = 3x - 1
1 + 1 = 3x - 2x
2 = x
x + 1 = 3
ur integers are 2 and 3
x + x + 1 = 3x - 1
2x + 1 = 3x - 1
1 + 1 = 3x - 2x
2 = x
x + 1 = 3
ur integers are 2 and 3
Call fhe first x
The second must be x+1
The sum of x and x+1 is 2x+1
Three times the first number is 3x
One less than that is 3x-1
2x+1=3x-1
1=3x-2x-1
2=3x-2x
2=x
The smaller number is 2, the larger number is 2+1 which is 3
The second must be x+1
The sum of x and x+1 is 2x+1
Three times the first number is 3x
One less than that is 3x-1
2x+1=3x-1
1=3x-2x-1
2=3x-2x
2=x
The smaller number is 2, the larger number is 2+1 which is 3
