$\"x%2B%28x%2B1%29=-81\"$ for the specified sum. assuming x is an integer, ignoring the second condition of the product.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"2x%2B1=-81\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"2x=-82\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=-41\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The two integers must be -41 and -40.
\n" ); document.write( "The CONSECUTIVE NEGATIVE INTEGERS.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Their product is 1640. The other condition, that $\"x%28x%2B1%29=1634\"$ will not agree with the described sum condition. \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
