Answer:

x = -46.5

x + 1 = -45.5

Step-by-step explanation:

x + x + 1 = -92

2x + 1 = -92

      -1       -1

------------------

   2x = -93

   ----     ----

    2        2

   x = -46.5

x + 1

(-46.5) + 1

-45.5

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up an equation where x is the integer and x+1 is the next one

x+x+1=-92

2x+1=-92

2x/2=-93/2

x=-46.5

-46.5+1=-45.5

The problem is that integers do no include decimals so there is no possible whole number. This problem would be possible if it was consecutive odd integers.
