$a,a+1,a+2\ \ -\ three\ consecutive\ integers\\\\
2a+3(a+2)=126\\\\
2a+3a+6=126\\\\
5a+6=126\ \ \ |Subtract\ 6\\\\
5a=120\ \ \ |Divide\ by\ 5\\\\
a=24\\\\Numbers\ are:\ 24,25,26.$

Choose the equation that has solutions (5,7) and (8,13).

Alekssandra [29.7K]

<h2>Answer:y=2x-3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

$(x_{1},y_{1})$ is called solution of a equation if $(x_{1},y_{1})$ satisfies the equation.

Consider the equation $y=2x-3$ ,

For point $(5,7)$ ,

$LHS=y=7$

$RHS=2x-3=2(5)-3=10-3=7$

So, $RHS=LHS$

The point $(5,7)$ satisfies the equation.

For point $(8,13)$ ,

$LHS=y=13$

$RHS=2x-3=2(8)-3=16-3=13$

So, $RHS=LHS$

The point $(8,13)$ satisfies the equation.

So,both the points satisfy the equation $y=2x-3$
