The sum of three numbers is 62. The second number is equal to the first number diminished by 4. The third number is four times the first. What are the numbers?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The first variable is 11. The second variable is 7. The third variable is 44.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, make an equation with like variables. Instead of 62=x+y+z, change the equation into 62=x+(x-4)+4x. Then solve for x.

62= 6x-4

66= 6x

11=x

Then plug in x and solve for the other variables.

x=11

y=11-4=7

z=4(11)= 44
