PROBLEM SOLVING

The sum of two consecutive integer is twenty nine.

The equation would be

x + (x + 1) = 29

Solve for the value of x.

x + (x + 1) = 29

2x + 1 = 29

2x = 29 - 1

2x = 28

2x / 2 = 28 / 2

x = 14

Substitute the value of x

Let x = 14

x = 14

x + 1

x = 15

Checking.

Let x = 14

x + (x + 1) = 29

14 + (14 + 1) = 29

14 + 15 = 29

29 = 29 (True)
