The sum of three consecutive even numbers is 36. what is the smallest of these numbers.

10

Step-by-step explanation:

I divided 36 by 3 and got 12. That showed me my middle value. My three numbers were 10, 12, and 14.

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.
