Algebra.Com's Answer #343973 by Gogonati(855)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let the first even number be x its consecutive will be x+2. Since their sum is at \n" ); document.write( "most 30, we write the inequality: \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x+x+2≤30 \n" ); document.write( "2x≤28 \n" ); document.write( "x≤14\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Answer:The greatest possible even integers are 14 and 16 \n" ); document.write( " |
