What is the answer to this: find three whole numbers, such that when inserted into the equation below, the value of x=6,

ax+b=c

Answer 1

whole numbers are like 0,1,2,3,4,5,6, etc

so no negatives or fractions or decimals

we can do
a=1, b=0, c=6, tada

or we can do
a=2, b=6, c=12

or we can do
a=3, b=12, c=18

etc, many possiblies

ax + b = c
ax = c - b
x = (c - b) / a

c = 8, b = 2, a = 1, x = 6
