For this problem, all you need to do is find the three #'s that add up to 156.
So, lets look at the answers and add them up.
A. 50, 52, 54
50 + 52 + 54 = 156
B. 51,52,53
51 + 52 + 53 = 156
C. 49,50,51
49 + 50 + 51 = 150
D. 49,51,53
49 + 51 + 53 = 153
We get the answers (50,52,54) and (51,52,53)
Now, consecutive numbers are numbers that in order, like 1,2,3.
Therefore, the answer is (51,52,53)

Answer:
y=5/7 x=31/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Make the x values the opposite of each other:
-2(x+5y=8)
-2x-10y=-16
2x+3y=9
Combine like terms and solve for y:
-7y=-5
y=5/7
Plug y in to find x.
x+5(5/7)=8
x+25/7=8
56/7-25/7=x
x=31/7
