Step-by-step explanation:
We use the equation
(x) + (x - 7) + (3 * (x - 7)) = 107
= x + x - 7 + 3 * (x - 7) = 107
= 2x - 7 + 3(x - 7) = 107
Add 7 on both sides
= 2x + 3(x - 7) = 114
Expand the 3
= 2x + 3x - 21 = 114
= 5x - 21 = 114
Add 21 on both sides
= 5x = 135
Divide 5 on both sides
= 5x/5 = 135/5
= x = 27
Plug the functions in
(27) + (27 - 7) + (3 * (27-7)) = 107
You would get
27 + 20 + 60 = 107, therefore the numbers are 27, 20, 60
