find three consecutive integers such that three times the first minus the second is one more than third
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "1st: x
\n" ); document.write( "2nd: x+1
\n" ); document.write( "3rd: x+2
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "3(x) - (x+1)= x+3
\n" ); document.write( "3x-x-1 = x+3
\n" ); document.write( "2x -1 = x+3
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4
\n" ); document.write( "x+1 = 5
\n" ); document.write( "x+2 = 6\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "2. A number is two times the difference between eighteen and a number find the number
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Let the number be \"x\":
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2(18-x)
\n" ); document.write( "x = 36 -2x
\n" ); document.write( "3x = 36
\n" ); document.write( "x = 12
