The small number is 2.
The large number is 3.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let the two consecutive numbers be x and x+1.
- x be the small integer.
- x+1 be the large integer.
The sum of these two consecutive integers = small integer + large integer
The sum of these two consecutive integers is x+x+1 = (2x+1)
It is given that,
- The sum of two consecutive integers is one less than three times the smaller integer.
- This means that, (2x+1) is one less than three times the smaller integer.
- Here, the small integer is represented as x.
<u>Therefore, it can determined that :</u>
(2x+1) = 3x-1
Keeping x term on one side and constants on other side,
3x-2x = 1+1
x = 2
Therefore, the small number is 2 and the large number is x+1 = 3.

Answer:
There were 15 birds at the shelter on Monday
Step-by-step explanation: 15 birds x 5$ =75$ and 8 cats x 6$=48$ 75$ + 48$=123$
SO what you need to do is:
<span>Start with |f(x) - 3| < 0.4
and plug in f(x) = x+1
to get
|f(x) – 3| < 0.4
|x+1 – 3| < 0.4
|x - 2| < 0.4
-0.4 < x - 2 < 0.4
-0.4+2 < x < 0.4+2
1.6 < x < 2.4
So delta would be 2.3
