Answer:

14, 15, 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let integers equal:

x, x + 1, x + 2

2x = 12 + (x + 2)

2x = 12 + x + 2

2x = 14 + x

2x - x = 14

x = 14

x + 1 = 14 + 1 = 15

x + 2 = 14 + 2 = 16

2x+5=10-3x please help

Taya2010 [7]

Answer is 14x

Step by step

2x + 5 = 10 - 3x

Let’s start with 2x + 5 = 7 and you bring the x with you which is 7x

Now you do 7x = 10 - 3x , equal sign is plus am guessing and then 10 - 3x is 7x so

7x + 7x = 14x

What is the value of x in the following equation? 4(x-1) = 2(x +1)

Alla [95]

Start by multiplying to get rid of parentheses. Then use addition/subtraction to isolate x on one side of the equation. Finally, use division to determine the value of x.
