3 consecutive numbers....x, x + 1 and x + 2
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 72
3x + 3 = 72
3x = 72 - 3
3x = 69
x = 69/3
x = 23
x + 1 = 23 + 1 = 24
x + 2 = 23 + 2 = 25
so ur numbers are 23,24,25 with 25 being the largest
Answer: x = -14/5
Step-by-step explanation: We shall begin by expanding the brackets for both sides of the equation
-2/3 (x + 2) = 1/6 (x + 6)
(-2x/3) -4/3 = (x/6) + 1
By collecting like terms we now have
(-2x/3) - (x/6) = 1 + 4/3
(-4x - x)/6 = 7/3
-5x/6 = 7/3
By cross multiplication we now have
-5x (3) = 7 (6)
-15x = 42
x = -(42/15) {simplify further by dividing the RHS by 3}
x = -14/5
Therefore x equals, minus fourteen over five (-14/5)
