what are two consecutive odd intergers such that twice the larger, increased by the smaller, is 43
.
Let x = integer
and x+2 = consecutive odd integer
.
The equation then becomes:

Now let's solve for x to find the smaller integer.

Now divide by 3 on both sides.
Then add two to find the consecutive odd integer.
Once that is done, plug in these values in the original equation to check/confirm the integers make sense for the equation.
.
Done! :)
