Find two consecutive even integers whose sum is -50. which of the following equations could be used to solve the problem? 2x = -50 2x + 1 = -50 2x + 2 = -50 x2 + 1= -50

consecutive even integers are 2 apart

so they are x and x+2

their sum is x+x+2

the sum is -50

so x+x+2=-50 would be the equation

we can simplify it to get 2x+2=-50

the answer is the 3rd option
