Question

When three consecutive even integers are added, the sum is zero. Find the integers
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first even integers =x 

Then next two consecutive even integers =(x+2) and (x+4) 

According to the given statement , 

x+(x+2)+(x+4)=0 

x+x+2+x+4=0 

3x+6=0 

3x=−6 

x=3−6 

We get , 

x=−2 

Therefore , three consecutive integers are −2,(−2+2) and (−2+4) i.e., −2,0 and 2

Answer 2

Answer:

First integer = x

Second integer = x+2

Third integer = x+4

The equation will be as follows:-

x+x+2+x+4 = 0

x+x+x = 0-2-4

3x = 0-6 = -6

x = -6/3 = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Therefore,the first integer is x = -2, second integer = x+2 = (-2)+ 2 = 0, third integer = x+4 = (-2)+4 = 2.
