Answer:

simple just follow me and mark it brainliest

Step-by-step explanation:

LET THE THREE CONSECUTIVE EVEN INTEGERS BE

(x+2) ,(x+4) ,(x+6)

then

according to the question

4(x+2) – (x+6) = 2(x+4) + 6

4x + 8 – x – 6= 2x + 8+6

3x +2 = 2x + 14

3x – 2x= 14 –2

x= 12

the numbers are

14

16

18

Answer:

The three numbers are 14, 16, 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive even integers differ by 2.

You can let the smallest of the three numbers equal x. Then the other two numbers are x + 2 and x + 4.

Now use x, x + 2,and x + 4 to represent the 3 numbers and follow the directions to write an equation. The equation will have only one variable, x, so you can solve for x.

"four times the first" ----->   4x

"minus the third"   ------->    -(x + 4)

"is"  ----->     =

"six more than twice the second"   ------>    2(x + 2) + 6

Put all the pieces in boldface together to arrive at your equation.

4x - (x + 4) = 2(x + 2) + 6

Simplify the parentheses on both sides by distributing.

4x - x - 4 = 2x + 4 + 6

Combine like terms on both sides.

3x - 4 = 2x + 10

Subtract 2x from both sides.

x - 4 = 10

Add 4 to both sides.

x = 14

The smallest number is 14.

x + 2 = 14 + 2 = 16

x + 4 = 14 + 4 = 18

Answer: The three numbers are 14, 16, 18.
