Two times the least of three consecutive odd integers exceeds three times the greatest by 15

Three consecutive odd integers would be x, x+2, and x+4 assuming x is an odd integer. The smallest of these is x. Two times x is 2x. The greatest integer is x+4. Three times this is 3 (x+4), and if you distribute you get 3x+12. If 2x exceeds this by 15, you would make it 3x+12-15. If you add the like terms, 12+(-15) is -3. So, you have 2x=3x-3. Subtract 3x from both sides. 2x-3x is -1x, or -x. Now we have -x=-3. Divide by -, or -1 on both sides. Now we have x=3. You can substitute x for 3 for any of the consecutive odd integers to find their value.

M=-4/3, point (0,-12)
postnew [5]
Y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = -4/3
(0,-12)....x1 = 0 and y1 = -12
sub
y - (-12) = -4/3(x - 0) =
y + 12 = -4/3(x - 0) <=== point slope form

y + 12 = -4/3x 
y = -4/3x - 12 <=== slope intercept form

y = -4/3x - 12
4/3x + y = -12
4x + 3y = -36 <=== standard form
