the sum of two consecutive integers is 118
\n" ); document.write( "a. DEFINE A VARIABLE FOR THE SMALLER INTEGER.
\n" ); document.write( "b. WHAT MUST YOU ADD TO AN INTERGER TO GET THE NEXT GREATER EVEN INTEGER?
\n" ); document.write( "c. WRITE AN EXPRESSION FOR THE SECON INTEGER.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "a. make the variable be x
\n" ); document.write( "b. you must add 2 to an even integer to get the next even integer
\n" ); document.write( "c. x + 2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Problem:
\n" ); document.write( "x + (x + 2) = 118
\n" ); document.write( "2x + 2 = 118
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 116
\n" ); document.write( "x = 58\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Check:
\n" ); document.write( "58 + (58 + 2) = 118
\n" ); document.write( "58 + 60 = 118
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
