Since there are three numbers involved in the answer, the equation needs to have three solutions which makes it somewhat complicated.
x3 + 87x2 + 1739x + 24360 = 0
There is no set of three consecutive odd or even integers whose sum is negative 31.
The integers are -6, -5 and -4 OR -7, -5 and -3 using only consecutive odd integers.
The integers are -12, -10 and -8.
The integers are -14, -12 and -10.
-30 -31 -32
The numbers are -22, -21 and -20.
There is no set of three consecutive odd or even integers whose sum is negative 31.
The integers are -6, -5 and -4 OR -7, -5 and -3 using only consecutive odd integers.
The integers are -12, -10 and -8.
-13, -15 and -17
The integers are -14, -12 and -10.
-30 -31 -32
There is no set of three consecutive integers for 187.
The numbers are -13, -11, and -9.
Those integers are -17, -15 and -13.
Let x be the first integer. Then the sum of the three consecutive integers is x + (x+1) + (x+2), which equals 3x + 3. We are given that this sum is 43, so we can write the equation 3x + 3 = 43. Solving this equation, we find that x = 13. Therefore, the three consecutive integers are 13, 14, and 15.
-31, -32, -33
