The lesser of two consecutive even integers is 10 more than one-half the greater. Find the integers. 1st: 2x 2nd: 2x+2 ----- EQUATION: 2x =(1/2)(2x+2)+10 2x = x + 11 x = 11 ------------- 1st: 2x = 22 2nd: 2x + 2 = 24 ===================================
2) The greater of two consecutive even integers is 6 less than the times the lesser
3) Find four consecutive integers such that twice the sum of the two greater integers exceeds three times the first by 91. 1st: x 2nd: x+1 3rd: x+2 4th: x+3 --------------- EQUATION: 2(x+2 + x+3) = 3x + 91 4x + 12 = 3x + 91 x = 79 x+1 = 80 etc. ====================== 4) Find a set of four consecutive positive integers such that the greatest integer in the set is twice the least integer in the I'll leave this to you.
