Answer:

11, 13, 15

B) 6x + 16 = 82

Note: I just kept my wrong approach.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let first define an odd integer.

Considering x\in\mathbb{Z}: 2k+1, x is an odd integer.

Now, three consecutive odd integers are a_1 = 2k+1 , a_2 = 2k+3 and a_3 = 2k+5

The sum of the​ first, two times the second and three times the third can be written as

a_1  + 2a_2 + 3a_3 = 2k+1 + 2(2k+3)+3(2k+5)

Expanding and simplifying

2k+1 + 2(2k+3)+3(2k+5) = 2k+1 +4k+6+6k+15 = 12k+22

This is what I have done initially, but considering x to be an odd integer, three consecutive integers can be written as

x, x+2, x+4 such that x\in\mathbb{Z}: 2k+1

Therefore,

x+2(x+2)+3(x+4)=82 \implies x+2x+4+3x+12 = 82 \implies 6x+16 = 82

and 6x+16 = 82 \implies 6x = 66 \implies x = 11

The three consecutive odd integers such that the sum of the​ first, two times the second and three times the third is 82 are 11, 13, 15
