Answer: The answer is x(x+1).


Step-by-step explanation: We are given four options involving an unknown variable 'x' and are told to decide which one gives the product of two consecutive integers.

Since the given integer is 'x', so its next integer will be (x+1), and its preceding integer is (x-1). so, Our correct ones are

(x-1)x or x(x+1).

We do not have (x-1)x as option, so the correct answer is x(x+1).

Thus, the answer is x(x+1).
