Answer:
x=-9
x+2=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x and (x+2)= the two consecutive integers
x=smaller odd integer
x+2=larger odd integer
1/3 of the smaller integer plus the larger integer =7 more than the sum of the two numbers
1/3x+(x+2)= (x)+(x+2)+(7)
x/3+x+2=x+x+2+7
x+3/3=2x+9
3/3x=2x+9
x=2x+9
x-2x=9
-x=9
x= -9
The smaller odd integer=x= -9
The larger odd integer=(x+2)=-9+2
= -7
