Question

The values of x − y and 2x − y are consecutive odd integers, respectively. What is the value of x ?

Answer 1

Answer: x = 2

Explanation:

(x-y)+2=2x-y

(x-y)+2–2x+y=0

-x+2=0 equals to x-2=0

x=2

Answer 2

Value of x is 2.

Explanation:

Given, two consecutive odd integers are x−y and 2x−y.

We know difference between two consecutive odd integers is 2, so the equation will be,

2x−y−(x−y)=2

⇒2x−y−x+y=2

⇒x=2
