Solve the following. Once you simplify the equation, you will write it on the line. Then list the integers you found as the answers in order from least to greatest
The sum of two consecutive integers is 53. What are the two integers?
Equation:
Integers:

Equation: 2x+1 = 53 (x is 26)

Integers: 26, 27

Step-by-step explanation:

53 is the sum of 2 consecutive integers. That means one of the integers is one larger than the other. This means that twice one integer plus one equals 53, so the equation becomes x + (x + 1) = 53.

x + (x+1) = 53

Combine x and x to get 2x.

2x + 1 = 53

Subtract 1 from both sides to cancel the +1.

2x = 52

Divide both sides by 2 to undo the multiplication by 2.

x = 26

With this we know the first integer is 26. The second is one more than that, so that's 27. So the two integers here are 26 and 27.

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.
