Largest integer: 57
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 168
3x + 3 = 168
-3 -3
3x = 165
/3 /3
x = 55
x = smallest integer = 55
x + 1 = middle integer = 55 + 1 = 56
x + 2 = largest integer = 55 + 2 = 57
Y=kx is the direct variation equation
First plug in the x, y values given to find K
18=k(5)
18/5=k
3.6 = k
Use the k and write a new equation.
y=3.6x
Plug in the x value to solve for y.
y = 3.6(11)
y= 39.6
X = -3 it's practically the y intercept in which x is equals 0
