The sum of three consecutive odd integers is 153. Find the three odd integers. First integer =

Second integer =

Third integer =

PLEASE HEL!!

49, 51, 53

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first odd integer be n.

Then the consecutive odd integer will be (n+2).

This will be followed by (n+4).

We know that the sum of these three is 153. In other words:

Solve for n. Combine like terms:

Subtract 6 from both sides:

Divide both sides by 3:

Therefore, our first odd number is 49.

So, our consecutive numbers must be 51 and 53.

Hence, our sequence is:

49, 51, 53

Notes:

If we get an even number for n or a non-integer value, then there are no three consecutive odd integers that sum to 153.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

AC² + BC² = AB² , that is

x² + x² = (12 )²

2x² = 288 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x² = 144 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = = 12
