Answers: The page numbers are 11 and 12

==========================================================

Explanation:

Consecutive integers are ones that follow immediately after another. For example, the set {7,8,9,10} are consecutive.

Let,

  • x = first page, some positive whole number
  • x+1 = second page, follows immediately after page x

Adding those two said pages will lead to 23

first + second = 23

(x) + (x+1) = 23

2x+1 = 23

2x = 23-1

2x = 22

x = 22/2

x = 11 is the first page

x+1 = 11+1 = 12 is the second page

Check: 11+12 = 23 which confirms the answers.

Katie is buying souvenir.gifts for her big family back home. She wants to buy everyone either a key chain or a magnet. The magne
NikAS [45]
The total number of gifts = x+y.
The inequality is:
x+y  \geq 24

Key chains cost $1, Magnets $0.50
Total Cost = x + 0.5y
Inequality is:
x+0.5y  \leq 20

Without graphing you can solve system by using substitution:
y = 24 - x  \\  \\ x + 0.5(24-x) = 20   \\  \\ 0.5x +12 = 20  \\  \\ x = 16 \\  \\ y = 24-16 = 8

This is one solution where the maximum x value is given.
So the most keychains that can be purchased is 16. However, because magnets are cheaper, more can be purchased as long as cost remains under 20.

If you solve both inequalities for "y", you get the upper and lower bounds for how many magnets can be purchased given a quantity of keychains.

24-x  \leq y  \leq 40 -2x \\  \\ x \leq 16

This is complete solution which gives all possible combinations.
