You can put this solution on YOUR website! if x represents the first, or smallest, of three consecutive even integers, express the sum of the three integers in terms of three integers in terms of x.
.
Let x = smallest of three consecutive even integer
then
x+2 = next largest consecutive even integer
x+5 = largest of three consecutive even integers
.
"the sum of the three integers in terms of three integers":
x + x+2 + x+5
3x+7
