Select the inequality that models the problem. The sum of two consecutive odd integers is at least 84. Find the least possible pair of integers. Responses n + n + 1 ≥ 84 n + n + 1 ≥ 84 n + n + 1 > 84 n + n + 1 > 84 n + n + 2 > 84 n + n + 2 > 84 n + n + 2 ≥ 84

The inequality that models the problem is n + n + 1 ≥ 84. This means that the least possible pair of integers that would make the equation true is n = 41 and n + 1 = 42.
