Answer:

The smallest integer is -27 and the integers are -27, -26, and -25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent this with:

x + x - 1 + x - 2 = -78

Simplify.

3x - 3 = -78

Add 3 to both sides.

3x = -75

Divide both sides by 3.

x = -25

So, the first integer is -25.

Subtract two to get the smallest integer.

-25 - 2 = - 27

AleksAgata [21]
Total amount paid by Chris = 4000 + (22500 - 4000)(1 + 0.03)^5 = 4000 + 18500(1.03)^5 = 4000 + 21446.57 = $25446.57

Total amount paid by John = 5000 + (22500 - 5000)(1 + 0.12)^5 = 5000 + 17500(1.12)^5 = 5000 + 30840.98 = $35,840.98

John paid $10,394.41 more than Chris.
