Three consecutive odd integers are such that the square of the third is 264 more than the square of the second. Find the three integers.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "

\r\n" );
document.write( "First odd integer  = \r\n" );
document.write( "Second odd integer = \r\n" );
document.write( "Third odd integer  = \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "the square of the third = \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "the square of the second = \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( ">>...the square of the third is 264 more than the square of the second...<<\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Replace \"the square of the third\" by \r\n" );
document.write( " \r\n" );
document.write( ">>... is 264 more than the square of the second...<<\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Replace \"the square of the second\" by .\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( ">>... is 264 more than ...<<\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Replace the word \"is\" by :\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( ">>...  264 more than ...<<\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Make  264 more than it is by adding 264 to it on the right:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "That is, replace \"264 more than \" by \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( ">>...  ...<<\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So the equation is\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Can you solve that equation?  If not post again asking how.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Solution to that equation: x=63\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "First integer  = \r\n" );
document.write( "Second integer = \r\n" );
document.write( "Third integer  = \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
