Let the first integer = x
\n" ); document.write( "the next DISABLED_event_one= x +1
\n" ); document.write( "the third = x+2
\n" ); document.write( "x+(x+1)=3(x+2)-33
\n" ); document.write( "2x+1=3x+6-33
\n" ); document.write( "2x-3x=6-33-1
\n" ); document.write( "-1x=-28
\n" ); document.write( "x=28
\n" ); document.write( "1st integer = 28
\n" ); document.write( "second = 29
\n" ); document.write( "third = 30
\n" ); document.write( "check:
\n" ); document.write( "28+29=3(30)-33
\n" ); document.write( "57=57
\n" ); document.write( ":)
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
