Question 467531
Find two consecutive even intergers such that the smaller added to five times the larger gives the sum of 82

Let x = the smaller even integer

  x+2 = the larger even integer

5(x+2) + x = 82 
5x+10 + x = 82
6x = 72
x = 12 (the smaller integer)

x+2 = 12+2 = 14 (the larger integer)

The two consecutive even integers are 12 and 14.
