let x be the first even number then we can list the four even integers as
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "x, x+2, x+4, x+6
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "now we can write the relationship
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "(x+2 + x+6) = ((x+4)/4) + 49
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "now simplify the expression
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "2x +8 = ((x+4)/4) + 49
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "multiply both sides of = by 4
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "8x +32 = x+4 +196
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "7x +32 = 200
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "7x = 168
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "x = 24
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "****************************************
\n" ); document.write( "the four even numbers are 24, 26, 28, 30
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "check the answer
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "26 + 30 = (28/4) + 49
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "56 = 7 + 49
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "56 = 56
