I would appreciate if someone would help me

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the integers are consecutive. This means that they can be written as:

x, x + 1, and x+2.

First Integer: x

Second Integer: x + 1

Third Integer: x + 2

It is also given that the sum of the first integer and twice the second is 80 minus three times the third.

Write as an equation:

First Integer + 2(Second Integer) = 80 - 3(Third Integer)

Substitute:

x + 2(x+1) = 80 - 3(x+2)

Multiply:

x + 2x + 2 = 80 - 3x - 6

Simplify:

3x + 2 = 74 - 3x

Add 3x to both sides of the equation:

6x + 2 = 74

Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation:

6x = 72

Divide both sides of the equation by 6:

x = 12
