The sum of two consecutive even integers is 26. What are the two numbers?  Select: A) 12-14 B) 13-13 C) 10-16 D) 9-17 E) 8-18
Let 2n be the first even integer and let 2n + 2 be the second integer   2n + 2n + 2 = 26   4n + 2 = 26   4n + 2 - 2 = 26 - 2   4n = 24   n = 6   So the first even integer is 2n = 2 × 6 = 12 and the second is  12 + 2=
