Question 886183: help me solve thias problem please?
The sum of the 2nd and 4th of 6 consecutive odd integers minus the 6th is 17. what are the integers?
Answer by rothauserc(4718) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
let x be the first odd integer, then our sequence is
x, x+2, x+4, x+6, x+8, x+10
we are given
x+2 + x+6 - (x+10) = 17
x+2 +x+6 -x -10 = 17
x -2 = 17
x = 19
the integers are
19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29
