If <em>x</em> is the smallest of the three, then the next two integers are <em>x</em> + 2 and <em>x</em> + 4.
"Twice the largest is 20 less than the sum of all three" translates to
2 (<em>x</em> + 4) = (<em>x</em> + (<em>x</em> + 4) + (<em>x</em> + 6)) - 20
Solve for <em>x</em> :
2<em>x</em> + 8 = 3<em>x</em> - 10
<em>x</em> = 18
Then the three numbers are {18, 20, 22}.
Answer:
x+(x-3)+(2*x)=41
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the other two bills are based of of a constant value for fives. Therefore, the fives can be x. There are 3 less tens than fives, so the number of tens equals x-3. We double the number of fives to get the number of ones, so the number of ones equals 2 times x. When we add all 3 of those together, we get our total number of 41. If you want to solve, you have to solve for x, then you can plug it back into the formula. I hope this helps!
