find three consecutive integers such that the sum of the first and twice the second is equal to the third plus four​

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The three consecutive integers are 2,3,4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three consecutive integers be represented as x,x+1,x+2

As per the given condition, the sum of the first and twice the second integer is equal to the third integer plus 4.

Representing it in the form of an equation:

x + 2*(x+1) = (x+2) + 4

=> x + 2x + 2 = x+6

=> 3x + 2 = x + 6

=> (3x -x) = 6 - 2

=> 2x = 4

=> x = 4/2 = 2

So the three integers are 2,3,4

Verification: 2 + 2*3 = 8

                    4 + 4 = 8

So the requirement is satisfied by these integers.

why a flat surface of a rectangular prism called faces?

It's not faces it's pretty much the sides but I guess it's because it's called faces as in phases like there are let's say three phases to a triangle( that's in my opinion )
Well, because the flat surfaces are basically a face except a face for the shape....
