Question

Write 2 distinct integers whose sum is equal to one integers

Answer 1

The answer is given below :

We know that the set of integers is

Z = { - ∞, ..., -1, 0, 1, ..., ∞}

Now, to find two distinct integers whose sum is equal to one integer, we need to add two distinct integer to get another integer.

We take two integers 1 and 2.

Then, their sum is = 1 + 2 = 3,
which is another integer.

In this way, we can find infinitely many pairs of integers.

E.g., {(1, 8), (10, -2), (7, 8), ...}

Thank you for your question.
