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! :)

As a bicycle salesperson, Norman earns a fixed salary of $20 per week plus $6 per bicycle for the first 6 bicycles he sells, $12
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

A. I only

I. y>2x

Step-by-step explanation:

I. y>2x

He sold x bicycles last week and y bicycles this week,  this week, he earned more than twice as much as he did last week. Therefore more than twice means greater than 2 x or

y>2x

II. y>x This is not true because y could be greater than x and less than twice of x (2x)

III. y>3 This is also not true because the least he would be earning would be $ 20 and he could get earn greater than 3 and less than $ 20 which would again be contradictory to the given statement

How to find the ratio of the volume of a cone to the volume to a cylinder
dangina [55]

The volume of a cone, V(cone), is given by the following formula:

V(cone) = (1/3)Bh, where B is the area of the circular base and h is the height of the cone. The area B of the base is given by the formula B = πr², where r is the radius of the circular base; Therefore, substituting for B, the volume of a cone becomes:
