Odd integers are represented by 2n+1 where n is a whole number
consecutive odd are 2 apart so
they are 2n+1 and 2n+1+2
the sum of them is at least 16
2n+1+2n+1+2<u>></u>16
4n+4<u>></u>16
minus 4
4n<u>></u>12
divide 4
n<u>></u>3
sub back
2n+1 and 2n+3
2(3)+1 and 2(3)+3
6+1 and 6+3
7 and 9
they have to be at least 7 and 9

Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!!
if we evaluate the expression it will look like :
3x + 14 = 8
and if we solve it:
3x+14=8
Step 1: Subtract 14 from both sides.
3x+14−14=8−14
3x=−6
Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.
3x/3 = -6/3
x= −2
Answer:
y = -5/3 - 8
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to write this in the form y = mx + b. We need to find the m (slope) and the b (y-intercept) , Whew, they already gave us the slope, so we are have way there. I will plug in the x and y that we are given from the point (-6, 8) to solve for b.
y = mx + b
8 = -5/3(-6) + b Multiply the fraction by -6
8 = 30/3 + b I can make 6 a fraction by writing it 6/1 and then just multiply straight across. A negative times a negative is a positive.
8 = 10 + b 30/3 is equal to 10. Now subtract 10 from both sides to get b
-8 = b
I can now write the equations since I now know m and b.
y = -5/3 + (-8) which is the same as y = -5/3 - 8. Adding a negative is the same as subtracting a positive.
