One integer is 5 more than another integer. Their sum is - 13. What are the two integers?

-4 and - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us use variables.

Let x = 5 + y

and x + y = - 13

Now we can solve this problem.

x + y = - 13

(5 + y) + y = - 13

5 + 2y = - 13

2y = - 13 - 5

2y = - 18

y = - 9

x = 5 + - 9

x = - 4
