Answer:

 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the middle integer. Then the smallest is x-2 and the largest is x+2. Your requirement is that ...

  (x-2)/(x+2) > 2/3

  3x -6 > 2x +4 . . . . cross multiply

  x > 10 . . . . . . . . . . .add 6-2x

The smallest integer satisfying this requirement is x=11. The sum of the 5 integers is 5x = 55.

The smallest sum is 55.

Answer:

D. $16.42

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the sales tax of a product, you need to multiply the product's price by the sales tax in decimal form.

To find the decimal form of a percentage, you simply move the decimal paint two spaces to the left. So, 8.25% in decimal form is 0.0825.

199.99 * 0.0825 = 16.499175

This number is closest to $16.42, so D is the correct answer.
