I am thinking of two consecutive integers. Twice the first is equal to the sum of the second plus 2. What is the larger integer? ​

4

Step-by-step explanation:

the largest integer is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

start with calling the integer "x" so

twice the first which is "2x" equals the second which is "x+1" (because it is consecutive number) plus 2 so it will be "x+3"

so the equation will be (2x=x+3)

then solve it by dividing by x both sides

so x=3

and you wanted the larger so 3+1=4

in if you ask questions, the points are taken from your total and given to the one who answered it..

so if i have 30 points and i ask a question for 5 points, then when someone asks a question i will lose 5 points and the answerer earns 5
