Answer:

The two integers are -47 and -48.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two consecutive integers be [tex]$ (n - 1) $[/tex] and [tex]$ n $[/tex].

Given that their sum is -95.

⇒ (n - 1) + n = - 95

⇒ 2n - 1 = - 95

⇒ 2n = - 94

Dividing by 2 throughout, we get:

n = - 47

⇒ n - 1 = - 47 - 1 = - 48

Therefore, the two integers should be - 47 and - 48.
