Answer: option A, 3x + 5
first, i rewrote it and removed the parentheses.
2x - 4 + x + 9
then, i collected the like terms.
3x + 5
Let's say "n" is a natural number. {1,2,3,4,..} To ensure we have an even number we will multiply "n" by 2. Two times any number will make an even number.
consecutive even numbers are like; 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 .. etc. Add +2 to the previous number to get the next consecutive.
1st even number = 2n
2nd even number = 2n + 2
3rd even number = 2n + 4
twice the first number (2n) is 20 more then the second (2n + 2).
2(2n) = 2n + 2 + 20
4n = 2n + 22
4n - 2n = 22
2n = 22
n = 11
Now use n = 11 to find the 3 consecutive even numbers.
1st even number = 2(11) = 22
2nd even number = 2(11) + 2 = 24
3rd even number = 2(11) + 4 = 26
22, 24, 26
