The sum of two consecutive integers is 59. write an equation that models this situation and find the values of the two integers?

Let the smaller of the two numbers be x. Therefore the larger number is 1 bigger, x+1.


We can solve this equation for x, which will be one of our two numbers.



Now that we've found x, we can find x + 1. In this case, .
Therefore, the two numbers are 29 and 30.
