Let “n” represent the least of the odd numbers. Then the next two will be:
n + 2 and n + 4 that their sum is 159.

n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 159

3n + 6 = 159

3n = 153

n = 51

And to check: 51 + 53 + 55 = 159

To find the equation of this line in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b, where m is its slope and b is its y-intercept), we naturally need the slope and the y-intercept. We can see that the line intersects the y-axis at the point (0, 4) so our y-intercept is 4, and the line rises 4 along the y-axis for every 2 it runs along the x-axis, so its slope is 4/2 = 2. With this in mind, we can write the line's equation as

y = 2x + 4
