What two negative consecutive integers have a sum off - 55

The correct answer would be - 27 and - 28

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we can set the first integer as x and the second would be x+1. Now we can add them together and set equal to - 55.

x + x + 1 = - 55

2x + 1 = - 55

2x = - 56

x = - 28

So we know the first number is - 28 and then we just add one to get the second, which would be - 27.
