Find 3 consecutive odd integers such that 4 times the 2 decreased such that 4 times the 2 decreased by 10bis 26

Question

Find 3 conservative odd integers such that 4 times the 2 decreased by 10 is 26

Answer 1

Three consecutive odd integers can be written as x, x+2, and x+4 because they are all odd integers. The second integer, therefore, is x+2. We set up our equation therefore as:

4 (x+2) - 10 = 26

Solve for x, that gives us: x =7

Plug x for 7 into the three consecutive odd integers [x, x+2, and x+4], that gives us [7, 9, 11]
