Answer:
d. 3x + 6 = 26
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Definitions</u>
- Integer: a whole number that can be positive, negative or zero.
e.g. ..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ... - Even number: an integer that is exactly divisible by two. For example, 2, 4, 6, 8 are all positive even numbers.
- Consecutive: following one after the other in order.
<u>The sum of three consecutive even integers</u>
Let x be the first even integer.
As there is a <u>difference of 2</u> between <u>consecutive even integers</u>, the next even integer after x will be (x + 2).
Therefore, the next even integer after (x + 2) will be (x + 2) + 2 = (x + 4).
So "the sum of three consecutive even integers is twenty-six" is:
x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 26
<u>To solve</u>
⇒ x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 26
⇒ x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 26
⇒ 3x + 6 = 26
(Please note that there are no three consecutive even integers that sum to 26, so the problem cannot be solved).
