Question 633493
Let x = our integer
then
(x+6) = another integer
:
Write an equation for the statement:
:
" The product of the lesser integer and -7 is 42 more than the greater integer"
-7x = (x+6) + 42
-7x - x = 48
-8x = 48
x = {{{48(-8)}}}
x = -6 is the lesser integer 
then
-6 + 6 = 0 is greater integer
:
Check solution in the given statement:
-7(-6) = 0 + 42
