The sum of two consecutive odd integers is at least 76 find the least possible pair of integers. n+n+2is greater than 76 n+n+1 is greater than 76 n+n+2 is greater than or equal to 76 n+n+1 is greater than or equal to 76

  (c)  N+n+2 is greater than or equal to 76

Step-by-step explanation:

"At least" in English means "greater than or equal to" in math symbols. Two odd integers differ by 2, so if one of them is represented by 'n', the next higher one is represented by n+2. Their sum will be ...

  n + n+2 ≥ 76 . . . . . equation matches the third choice

__

The solution can be found by subtracting 2, then dividing by 2.

  2n +2 = 76

  2n = 74

  n = 37

The smaller of the two consecutive odd integers will be at least 37.

in mathematics, a constraint is a condition of an optimization problem that the solution must satisfy. there are several types of constraints—primarily equality constraints, inequality constraints, and integer constraints. the set of candidate solutions that satisfy all constraints is called the feasible set.

hoped i'm right lol
