Consecutive Integers Ddb015
1. **State the problem:** We need to find two consecutive integers such that twice the smaller integer plus half the larger integer equals 33.
2. **Define variables:** Let the smaller integer be $x$. Then the larger consecutive integer is $x+1$.
3. **Write the equation:** Twice the smaller integer plus half the larger integer equals 33:
$$2x + \frac{x+1}{2} = 33$$
4. **Solve the equation:** Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction:
$$2 \times 2x + 2 \times \frac{x+1}{2} = 2 \times 33$$
$$4x + (x+1) = 66$$
5. **Simplify:**
$$4x + x + 1 = 66$$
$$5x + 1 = 66$$
6. **Isolate $x$:**
$$5x = 66 - 1$$
$$5x = 65$$
$$x = \frac{65}{5} = 13$$
7. **Find the two integers:** The smaller integer is 13, and the larger integer is $13 + 1 = 14$.
**Final answer:** The two consecutive integers are 13 and 14.
