Assume the smaller one is x, then the other ones will be x+2 and x+4

x(x+2) + 2 = 5(x+4)

x^2 + 2x - 5x - 18 = 0

-> x^2 - 3x - 18 = 0

-> (x-6)(x+3) = 0

-> x = 6 or -3, since x must be positive, then x = 6

So the numbers are: 6, 8, 10

The correct answer is A. Think of this as a graph in the y=Mx+b form. When graphing these equations, you should be able to see that the lines for A and B match up with the picture. However, since everything below the line is shaded, this must mean that the graph includes everything under the line. Y must be less than everything that is input. The correct answer is A.
