So consectuve even numbers
we know that one even number plus 2= another even number so we want to find 3 consecutive even numbers that add up to 96 or
x is the first number
x+2 is the second number
x+4 is the third number
x+x+2+x+4=96
3x+6=96
subtract 6 from both sides
3x=90
divide both sides by 3
x=30
the first number is 30
x+2=32=second number
x+4=34=third number
the numbers are 30,32,34
Answer:
a. Andrea is incorrect
b. By solving for x, we find that x does not equal 8, but it is equal to 7.
Step-by-step explanation:
8+4=2(x-1)
8+4=2x-2
12=2x-2
14=2x
x=7
