The sum of three consecutive odd integers is 81. what is the value of the largest integer?

Let the integers be as followed.

X

X + 2

X + 4

Now, we can set up an equation to solve.

X + X + 2 + X + 4 = 81

3x + 6 = 81

      -6    -6

      3x = 75

       X = 25

X = 25

X + 2 = 27

X + 4 = 29

Therefore, 29 is the largest integer.

you ignore the remainder, therefore the answer is y = x+2

step-by-step explanation:

you have to divide the denominator by the numerator. you can use synthetic division or long division.

[-5] .     1 .     7 .     11

x + 2 + 1/x+5

the answer would be 0.54
