Algebra.Com's Answer #167890 by drj(1380) You can put this solution on YOUR website! Choose the equation that best represents the following: The sum of three consecutive integers is 24.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "A. x(x + 1)(x + 2) = 24 \n" ); document.write( "B. x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 24 \n" ); document.write( "C. (x + 1)(x + 2) = 24 \n" ); document.write( "D. x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 24\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 1. Let x be the first integer.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 2. Let x+1 and x+2 be the next two consecutive integers\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 3. Let x+(x+1)+(x+2) be the sum of the three consecutive integers.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 4. Then x+(x+1)+(x+2)= 24 since the sum of the three integers is 24.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 5.
