[tex]n+n+1=37\\ 2n=36\\ \boxed{n=18}\\ \boxed{n+1=19}[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let  two consecutive integers are x and x+1

As per the statement:

The sum of two consecutive integers is 37.

⇒x+x+1 = 37

Combine like terms;

[tex]2x+1` = 37[/tex]

Subtract 1 from both sides we have;

2x = 36

Divide both sides by 2 we have;

x = 18

and

x+1 = 18+1 = 19

Therefore, an equation that models this situation  [tex]x+x+1 = 37[/tex] and  the values of the two integers are 18 and 19
