If they're integers, that means they can't be fractions (such as 15/2 and 2).
So the only couples of integers that, when multiplied, result in 15 are:
1 and 15
5 and 3.
(there are no other possibilities as both 5 and 3 are not divisible further).
The smaller of the two sums (15+1; 5+3) is 5+3=8.
The least possible sum of a and b is 8.
The answer is ym=b your welcome

Example: f(x) = 2x+3 and g(x) = x2
"x" is just a placeholder. To avoid confusion let's just call it "input":
f(input) = 2(input)+3
g(input) = (input)2
Let's start:
(g º f)(x) = g(f(x))
First we apply f, then apply g to that result:
Function Composition
- (g º f)(x) = (2x+3)2
What if we reverse the order of f and g?
(f º g)(x) = f(g(x))
First we apply g, then apply f to that result:
Function Composition
- (f º g)(x) = 2x2+3
We get a different result! When we reverse the order the result is rarely the same. So be careful which function comes first.

Ya
compound interest
A=P(1+r)^t
A=amount final
P=principal
r=rate in decimal
t=time in yers
so
interest is 9.5% or 0.095
principal is 10000
time is 3 years
A=10000(1+0.095)^3
A=10000(1.095)^3
A=13129.323
rounded
he owes $13129.32
