Lets x is the 1st consecutive even integers
x +2 :the 2nd consecutive even integers
x +4: the 3rd consecutive even integers
So sum of all 3 equals -78 then
x + (x+2) + (x+4) = -78
x + x + 2 + x + 4 = -78
Simplify
3x + 6 = -78
Subtract (-6) to both sides
3x +6 -6 = -78 - 6
Simplify
3x = -84
Divided both sides by 3
3x/3 = -84/3
x = -28
x + 2 = -28 + 2 = -26
x +4 = - 28 + 4 = -24
Double check: -28 + -26 + -24 = -78
So the three consecutive even integers are: -24, -26, -28
The smallest integer would be -28
Short answer = false
Remark
If it is a right triangle, it will obey the Pythagorean Equation. a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Let's see if it does.
Equation
a^2 + b^2= c^2
c must be the longest line. (Hypotenuse)
Givens
a = 24
b = 17
c = 40
Sub and Solve
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
17^2 + 24^2 = c^2 [We'll see if this comes out to 40]
289 + 576 = c^2
865 = c^2 which is no where near what 40^2 equals. 40^2 = 1600
Short answer False
Square root of 865 = (865)^1/2 = 29.4
