Remark

I take it you want the integers to this problem.

Givens

The smallest integer = x - 1

The  middle integer = x

The largest integer = x + 1

Equation

3( x - 1 + x) = 4(x + 1) + 1    Remove the brackets on both sides.

3(2x - 1) = 4x + 4 + 1

6x - 3 = 4x + 5                        Subtract 5 from both sides.

-3 - 5 + 6x = 4x

- 8 + 6x = 4x                          Subtract 6x from both sides                              

- 8 = 4x - 6x

- 8 = -2x                                 Divide by -2

-8/-2  = x

x = 4  

Check

smallest integer = 3

middle integer = 4

largest integer = 5

3(3 + 4) = 4(5) + 1

3(7) = 4(5) + 1                            

21 = 20 + 1

21 = 21 and it checks.

Answer

the smallest number is 3

the middle number is 4

The largest number = 5

what does the slope of -1 tell you about thr relationship between lengths and widths of rectangles with perimeter 24?
NeX [460]

Using linear function concepts, the slope of -1 means that when one of the length/width is increased by 1, the other is decreased by 1.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

In this problem:

  • The lengths and the widths are interchangeable, that is, either can be considered as the input or as the output.
  • The slope of -1 means that when the input in increased by 1, the output is decreased by -1, that is, when one of the length/width is increased by 1, the other is decreased by 1.
