Answer: 96

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be written as x + y = 66.

Since the unknown integers are consecutive, y must equal x + 2 or x - 2. Let's rewrite the problem with this information.

66 = x + (x - 2) = 2x - 2

Solve for x.

x = 34

This means that the other integer is 34 - 2

Subtract.

34 - 2 = 32

The two integers are 32 and 34. We need to find the value of three times 32.

32 x 3 = 96

Answer:

The monarch refused to even receive it. It had been handed to the Earl of Darmouth on September 1, 1775, by Richard Penn and Arthur Lee on behalf o the Continental Congress. John Dickinson was its author. With careful language, the document expressed the disatisfaction of colonists with the policies of the crown´s ministers and justifies taking arms as a form of self-defense. The document manifests loyalty to the crown. After learning the reaction of the king, many Americans came to realize that the opressive policies approved by Parliament were of the king´s knowledge.

Which of Justinian's accomplishments had the longest lasting impact on western europe
Kay [80]
Justinian's Code-- set of laws and punishments coinciding with the laws.

Justinian created a code of laws to bring order to the Byzantine Empire. The laws created by Justinian created a set of universal laws which acted as national laws which had ultimate power over the people in Justinian's empire. Each of the laws corresponded with a punishment which also set up a comprehensive court system along with the laws. This legal system was copied and replicated in many European governments as well as the US system.
