I am thinking of two consecutive integers. Twice the first is equal to the sum of the second plus 2. What is the larger integer? ​

4

Step-by-step explanation:

the largest integer is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

start with calling the integer "x" so

twice the first which is "2x" equals the second which is "x+1" (because it is consecutive number) plus 2 so it will be "x+3"

so the equation will be (2x=x+3)

then solve it by dividing by x both sides

so x=3

and you wanted the larger so 3+1=4

x=-2

infinite number of lines, so there is an infinite number of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

there are an infinite number of line that passes through the point (-2,5)

x=-2   is one line that passes through the point

y = 5 is another line that passes through the point

(these two lines are perpendicular to each other).

since the number of   numbers are infinite and the slope is the ratio of two numbers,(change in y over change in x) we can have an infinite number of slopes.     our only condition is that it passes through the point (-2,5)

this may not be at all, but i use the same website you're using for school, and if i'm stuck doing one of these i try to look for it on the section.
