The sum of three consecutive integers is - 126. What are the integers?

1 answer:

4 0

Let the three consecutive integers be x , x+1 ,x+2
Given, sum of three consecutive integers = -126
x +x+1+ x+2 = -126
3x +3 = -126
3x = -126 -3
3x = -129
x = -129/3
x = - 43
x +1 = -42
x +2 = -41

y= boxes of strawberries

system will be:

$\left \{ {{2x+4y=43 \atop {2x+2y=30}} \right.$

$\left \{ {{2x+4y=43 \atop {2x+2y=30}} \right.$ $\left \{ {{x=21.5-2y \atop {2x+2y=30}} \right.$ $\left \{ {{- \atop {2(21.5-2y)+2y=30}} \right.$ $\left \{ {{- \atop {43-4y+2y=30}} \right.$ $\left \{ {{- \atop {-4y+2y=30-43}} \right.$ $\left \{ {{- \atop {-2y=-13}} \right.$ $\left \{ {{- \atop {y=\frac{13}{2} }} \right.$ $\left \{ {x=21.5-2(6.5)}} \atop {y=6.5}} \right.$ $\left \{ {{x=8.5} \atop {y=6.5}} \right.$
