An integer is a whole number. Sum means to add and since they are consecutive, there is only a difference of 1 between them.
1) 21 + 23: not consecutive
2) 23+24= 47: has to be at least 46
3) 22+23= 45: has to be at least 46
4) 24+25= 49: has to be at least 46
So we have two possibilities: either #2 or #4. Find least possible pair of integers.
x= first integer
x+1= second integer
x + (x+1) >= 46
2x + 1 >=46
2x>=45
x>=22.5
Answer:
The first integer has to be greater than or equal to 22.5. Since integers are whole numbers, round up to the next whole number. The least possible integers are #2) 23 and 24.
Hope this helps! :)
1). $2,700 is (2,700/6,000) = 45% of 6,000.
It took 6 years to earn it, so it earned (45%/6) = 7.5% each year.
That's the simple-interest rate.

2). The investment earns 4.5% each year, so it earned 9% in 2 years.
The $1,150.65 is the 9% of the original investment. Call it V.
1150.65 = 0.09 x V .
Divide each side by 0.09 :
V = 1150.65 / 0.09 = $12,785 .

3). There are 18 marbles in the bag all together.
a). 8 of them are green. If you close your eyes and pull out 1 marble,
the probability that it's a green one is
8/18 = 4/9 = 44.4% .
b). If it was a red marble, and you put it in your pocket, then
there are only 17 in the bag now, and 8 of them are still green.
If you pull another one, the probability that it's green is
8/17 = 47.1% .

5). There are 10 marbles in the bag all together.
(The second sentence doesn't say anything, and doesn't mean anything.)
If you pull out a silver marble and put it in your pocket, then
there are 9 marbles in the bag, and 2 of them are orange.
The probability of pulling an orange marble now is
2/9 = 22.2% .
It will take 250 seconds for it to reach the bottom. To find this I did 17.5 divided by .07.
Y is behind 2 its in plain sight
Shape three is a decagon
shape two is a dodecagon
shape one is a "hexagon" has 6 sides
