If the sum of two consecutive number is 71 and one number is x then the other number is options are x +(x+1)=71,x+(x+2)=71,x+x=71,none of these

Answer:

x + (x + 1) = 71

Step-by-step explanation:

One number is x

So, other number = x + 1

Since, the sum of two consecutive number is 71

Therefore, x + (x + 1) = 71

Answer:

          x + (x + 1) = 71

Step-by-step explanation:

x - some integer

then the consecutive integer would be:

x+1     or  x-1   (as x is consecutive to x-1)

the sum: x + (x + 1)     or     (x - 1) + x

the sum is 71 so:

x + (x + 1) = 71           or   (x - 1) + x = 71
