Question

The sum of three consecutive even integers is 120. Find the numbers.

Answer 1

Let \(x\) be the first even integer. The next two would then be \(x+2\) and \(x+4\).

Their sum is 120, or
\[x+(x+2)+(x+4)=3x+6=120\]
Solve for \(x\), then find \(x+2\) and \(x+4\).

Answer 2

Ah yes even numbers, you're correct @SithsAndGiggles

Answer 4

Tyler has two savings accounts that his grandparents opened for him. One of the accounts pay 6% annual interest, whereas the other pays 8% annual interest. If you have $700 more invested at 8% than you invested at 6%, how much do you have invested in each account if the total amount of interest you earn in a year is $84?
