Answer:
10, 11, 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
Let <em>x</em> be equal to the smallest integer.
Let <em>x</em>+1 and <em>x</em>+2 be equal to the consecutive integers.
We're given that:
⇒ smallest integer + 2 × middle integer = 20 + largest integer
Construct an equation:
Combine like terms:
Therefore, the smallest integer is 10.
This makes the consecutive integers 11 and 12.
I hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
108 student tickets, and 176 adult tickets were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
Adult ticket $8 Call the number of adult tickets sold "a"
Student ticket $5 Call the number of student tickets sold "s"
Since we are talking about TWO consecutive days of sold out seats, the total number of seats sold were 2* 142 = 284
Then we create two different equations with the information given:
a + s = 284
8 * a + 5 * s = 1948
we can solve for s in the first equation as follows: s = 284 - a
and use it in the second equation
8 a + 5 (284 - a) = 1948
8 a + 1420 - 5 a = 1948
combining
3 a = 528
a = 528/3
a = 176
we find the number of student tickets using this answer in the substitution equation we used:
s - 284 - 176 = 108
Therefore 108 student tickets, and 176 adult tickets were sold.
