    A. 6x plus 16 equals 826x + 16 = 82

    Step-by-step explanation:

    x, x + 2, x + 4 - three consecutive odd integers

    The equation:

    "the sum of the first, two times the second and three times the third is 82"

    x + 2 (x + 2) + 3 (x + 4) = 82 use distributive property a (b + c) = ab + ac

    x + 2x + 4 + 3x + 12 = 82 combine like terms

    (x + 2x + 3x) + (4 + 12) = 82

    6x + 16 = 82
