22, 24, 26

Step-by-step explanation:

2n - 2 + 2n + 2n + 2 = 72

6n = 72

n = 72/6

n = 12

∴ so three consecutive even integers whose sum is 72 :

2n - 2

= 2(12) - 2

= 24 - 2

= 22

= 2(12)

= 24

2n + 2

= 2(12) + 2

= 24 + 2

= 26

verification

22 + 24 + 26

= 46 + 26

= 72 ✓✓

Answer:

The question is missing, so I will answer all the solution for each possible system of two equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations

x + 5 y = 10 (red)

3 x - y = 1 (blue)

x - 5 y = 10 (green)

3 x + y = 1 (purple)

are shown in the picture atatched. The intersection between two lines is the solution of their system.

system:

x + 5 y = 10 (red)

3 x - y = 1 (blue)

solution: (0.938, 1.813)

system:

x + 5 y = 10 (red)

x - 5 y = 10 (green)

solution: (10, 0)

system:

x + 5 y = 10 (red)

3 x + y = 1 (purple)

solution: (-0.357, 2.071)

system:

3 x - y = 1 (blue)

x - 5 y = 10 (green)

solution: (-0.357, -2.071)

system:

3 x - y = 1 (blue)

3 x + y = 1 (purple)

solution: (0.333, 0)

system:

x - 5 y = 10 (green)

3 x + y = 1 (purple)

solution: (0.938, -1.813)
