Answer:

-15 & -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

x+x+1=−29

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

x+x+1=−29

(x+x)+(1)=−29(Combine Like Terms)

2x+1=−29

2x+1=−29

Step 2: Subtract 1 from both sides.

2x+1−1=−29−1

2x=−30

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.

2x/2=−30/2

x=−15

-15+-14 = -29
