X + y > = 15.....this is saying that small rugs (x) + medium rugs (y) when made, are greater then or equal to 15...because they have to make at least 15
and since small rugs take 2 hrs......2x....and medium rugs take 3 hrs....3y...and they have to be made in less then 60 hrs...
2x + 3y < 60 <=== ur answer
Consecutive integers = in this situation double-digit whole numbers
So as there are 3 of them let's say 2 are 11 because that would be the highest consecutive number so 11+11= 22 and 48-22=26 so the three have the ages of 11,11,26 and the oldest would be 26 ;)
