Hi,
three consecutive even integers highlight%28x%29,highlight%28x%2B2%29,highlight%28x%2B4%29
The sum of twice the 1st, four times the 2nd plus the 3rd is equal to 96
Question states***
2x + 4(x+2) + (x+4) = 96
7x =84
x = 12 The three consecutive even integers are 12, 14, 16
+24+%2B+56+%2B+16+=+96
