First, we need to see how to get from one even integer to another. Well, what do you do to get from 2 to 4? 4 to 6? You add 2. If x is even, then the next even number must be x+2, and then the next x+4, and x+6, and so on. Since we're only going 3, we have:
x + (x+2) + (x+4) = 126. Now we can just solve the equation!
x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 126
3x + 6 = 126.
3x = 120.
x=40. But is that your answer? Nope! Don't forget, the problem says that <em>x is the smallest number out of the 3</em>. Which means 40 + 2 is the middle number, and 40 + 4 = 44 is the greatest.
Your answer is 44.

Answer:
(3,1) is the midpoint
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, average the x coordinates of the endpoints
(7+-1)/2 = 6/2 =3
To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, average the y coordinates of the endpoints
(10+-8)/2 = 2/2 = 1
(3,1) is the midpoint
When we say that y varies <em>directly </em>with x, we mean that whatever value x is scaled up by, y will be scaled up by, too. The simplest kind of direct variation is one where y = x for all values of x. If you multiply x by some value, y must be multiplied by that same value.
More generally, though, you'll have something of the form y = kx, where the variable k here is referred to as the <em /><em>constant of proportionality.</em> Another way you can think of k is as the <em>ratio of y to x</em>.
In this problem, you're given a set of values for x and y, and you'll need to use those to find the constant of proportionality before you set up an equation relating x to y. Substituting our general equation y = kx for the given values, we have:
-5 = k(15)
To get k, simply divide both sides by 15 to obtain:
k = -5/15 = -1/3
So, our general equation, for <em>any x</em>, would be y = (-1/3)x
