Question

There are 3 consecutive even integers. three times the smallest is twice the largest. what are the integers

Answer 1

Answer:

8,10,12

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

integer 1 = 8

integer 2 = x+2 = 8+2 = 10

integer 3 = x+4 = 8+4 = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

integer 1 = x , smallest

integer 2 = y , x+12

integer 3 = z , largest, x+4

three times the smallest is twice the largest.

3 (x) = 2 (x+4)

solve for x:

3x = 2x + 8

3x-2x = 8

x = 8

Replacing:

integer 1 = 8

integer 2 = x+2 = 8+2 = 10

integer 3 = x+4 = 8+4 = 12
