Answer:
The equation which can be used to find the value of numbers
(x) + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = - 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first no. is = x
Second number = x + 1
Third number = x + 2
The sum of three consecutive numbers = x + x + 1 + x + 2
Given that Three consecutive integers have a sum of –21.
Therefore
(x) + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = - 21
This is the equation which can be used to find the value of numbers.
Multiply both sides by 2
w= -1×2
simplify 1×2 to 2
w= -2
Answer:
sorry i dont understand you
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 3 = 3x + 11
• first put all the x-values on one side and the rest on the other
Remember: when the number moves to the other side of the equal sign the sign (+ OR - switches. For ex: the 3 on the left becomes negative when moved to the right side of the equal sign)
5x - 3x = 11 - 3
• subtract left and right sides separately
2x = 8
• divide both sides by 2 to solve for x
2x/2 = 8/2
x = 4 (final answer)
