The answer: The 3 (three) consecutive odd integers are: -3, -1, 1.
_____________________________________________
Explanation:
_______________
To represent 3 (three consecutive odd integers):
____________________________________
Let "x" be the first odd integer.
____________________________________
Let "(x+2)" be next consecutive odd integer.
____________________________________
Let "(x+4") be the third odd integer.
____________________________________
The sum of these three consecutive odd integers:
__________________________________________
x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 3x + 6 ;
_________________________________________
Six ("6") times the sum of these 3 (three) consecutive odd integers =
_________________
6*(3x+6) = 6(3x + 6) = -18 (as given in the problem).
_____________________________________________
Given: 6(3x + 6) = -18 ; We can divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "6", to cancel the "6" on the left-hand side into a "1";
__________________________________________
{6(3x + 6) } / 6 = -18 / 6 ; to get:
________________________________________
3x + 6 = -3 ; Now, we can subtract "6" from EACH SIDE of the equation:
__________________________________
3x + 6 - 6 = -3 - 6 ; to get:
__________________________________
3x = -9 ; Now, we can divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "3"; to isolate "x" on one side of the question; and solve for "x" ;
___________________________________
3x / 3 = -9 / 3 ; x = - 3 ;
_____________________
Remember, from above:
__________________________
Let "x" be the first odd integer. We know that "x = -3".
Is this an odd integer? Yes!
____________________________________
Let "(x+2)" be next consecutive odd integer. So (x+2) = (-3+2) = -1.
Is this an odd integer? Yes! Is this "{-1}" the next consecutive odd integer with respect to "{-3}"? Yes!
____________________________________
Let "(x+4") be the third odd integer. So (x+4) = (-3+4) = 1.
Is this an odd integer? Yes! Is this "{1"} the next consecutive odd integer with respect to "{-1}"? Yes!
___________________________
So, our 3 (three) consecutive odd integers are: -3, -1, 1.
___________________________
To check our work: Is 6 times the sum of our 3 consecutive odd integers, equal to "(-18)" ?
The sum of our 3 consecutive odd integers = -3 + (-1) + 1 = -3 - 1 + 1 = -3.
6 * -3 = ? -18? Yes!

Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
In the Slope-Intercept Formula, <em>y</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>mx</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>b</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>m</em><em> </em>is the <em>Rate</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>Change</em><em> </em>[<em>Slope</em>]. Anyway, starting from the <em>y-intercept</em><em> </em>of [0, 2], move 3 units <em>north</em><em> </em>over 1 unit <em>east</em><em>.</em><em> </em>That is called <em>rise</em><em>\</em><em>run</em><em> </em><em>→</em><em> </em>3\1 = 3.
