dexar [7]2 years ago

Answer:

The least of the three integers is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let <em>x</em> be equal to the least of these integers.

Let <em>x</em>+1 and <em>x</em>+2 be the next consecutive integers.

We're given that these integers have a sum os 6.

We can use these to construct an equation:

(x)+(x+1)+(x+2)=6

Combine like terms:

x+x+1+x+2=6\\x+x+x+1+2=6\\3x+3=6\\3x=3\\x=1

Therefore, the least of these integers is 1.

The other two integers would be 2 and 3.

I hope this helps!

$46 = y

If he downloaded 35 songs, he would have ti pay $46

If he downloaded s amount of songs, he would have to pay $11 + $1s = y
