Let ( x ) be the first integer. Then, the second consecutive integer is ( x + 1 ). Using the given information, we can set up the equation: ( x + 3(x + 1) = 55 ). Solving this equation, we find ( x = 16 ). Therefore, the two consecutive integers are 16 and 17.

Let ( x ) represent the first integer. Then the next consecutive integer would be ( x + 1 ).
According to the problem, the sum of the first number and three times the second number is 55. So, we can write the equation as:
[ x + 3(x + 1) = 55 ]
Solve this equation for ( x ):
[ x + 3x + 3 = 55 ] [ 4x + 3 = 55 ] [ 4x = 52 ] [ x = 13 ]
Therefore, the first integer is 13, and the next consecutive integer is ( 13 + 1 = 14 ).

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
