Answer:

18, 19, and 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive means beside. Numbers 2 and 3 are consecutive integers. Given this question, numbers 6, 8, and 9 could possibly be the answer. However, we don't know this, so let's represent the 6 as x, 7 as x+1. 9 is x+2. We know when these are added together the sum is 57, so 3x+3 should be 57. Now, solve as a normal algebraic question.

I'm struggling in this subject so if you'd give a step-by-step explanation that'd be great thx

defon

A. First you must start by plugging in your equation solve Y = 2(5) + 1 then you must simplify by solving your 2×5+ 1 and then you end up with Y equals 11

B. Again plug in your equation Y = 2(-5) + 1 then you must simplify by solving your 2×-5+ 1 and then you end up with Y equals -10+ one which simplifies to y = -9

I hope this helps
