Question

which product is the smallest integer 17 ? please answer me ​

Answer 1

Answer:

The product of the smallest and largest number is 17 more than 3 times the middle number, or

(x-1)(x+1) = 3x+17, or

x^2–1 = 3x+17, or

x^2–3x-18 = 0

(x-6)(x+3) = 0

So x = 6 or -3.

The three numbers are

5, 6 and 7, or

-4, -3, -2.
