N; n + 2 - the two consecutive even integers
n + 3(n + 2) = 46
n + 3n + 6 = 46 <em> |subtract 6 from both sides</em>
4n = 40 <em> |divide both sides by 4</em>
n = 10
n + 2 = 10 + 2 = 12
<u>Answer: 10 and 12.</u>

Answer:
2/5 hour is closest to 0 1/2 hours, 5/8 hour is closest to 1/2 hour. Therefore, the best estimate for the total time Maria spent with her sister is close to 1 hour
Step-by-step explanation:
We can represent the time Maria spends playing the game as 0.4, since 2/5 as a fraction is 0.4. This is closer to 1/2, which is 0.5 then it is to 0, because 4 is closer to 5 then 0. Then, we can represent the time Maria reads the book as 0.625, which is closer to 1/2 then it is to 1. Now we can add the estimated times. 
hour
Let t, h, b represent the weighs of tail, head, and body, respectively.
t = 4 . . . . given
h = t + b/2 . . . . the head weighs as much as the tail and half the body
b/2 = h + t . . . . half the body weighs as much as the head and tail
_____
Substituting for b/2 in the second equation using the expression in the third equation, we have
... h = t + (h + t)
Subtracting h from both sides gives
... 0 = 2t . . . . . . in contradiction to the initial statement about tail weight.
Conclusion: there's no solution to the problem given here.
