Answer to Problem 35CR
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The sum of two consecutive even integers is 150.
CONCEPT USED:
Rules of Addition/ Subtraction:
- Two numbers with similar sign always get added and the resulting number will carry the similar sign.
- Two numbers with opposite signs always get subtracted and the resulting number will carry the sign of larger number.
Rules of Multiplication/ Division:
- The product/quotient of two similar sign numbers is always positive.
- The product/quotient of two numbers with opposite signs is always negative.
Calculation:
In order to find the two integers,
let 2x be the first even integer and 2x+2 be the second integer, then the according to the given statement adding both integer and solving them as shown below:
So, the even integers are 74 and 76.
