Answer:

4,6,8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = 1st even integer

x+2 =2nd even integer

x+4 =3nd even integer

x+ x+2 + x+4 = 18

Combine like terms

3x+6 = 18

Subtract 6 from each side

3x+6-6=18-6

3x= 12

Divide by 3

3x/3 =12/3

x = 4

x+2 = 6

x+4 = 8

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

40 bats sold for $42

26 bats sold for $30

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 66

42x + 30y = 2460

solve first equation for y and plug in for y in second equation

42x + 30 (66 - x) = 2460

x = 40

y = 66- 40 = 26
