At a math contest,students began with 44 points, and were given 12 points for each problem correctly solved. how many points would a student have if he solved 38 problems correctly?

The integers are -3, -1 and +1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first integer is X

=> the other two consecutive odd integers are X+2 and X+4

Now we have given that their sum is 7 less than 4 times the largest number

Thus the first integer is -3

the second is (-3+2) = -1

and the third integer is (-3+4) = +1
