What is the value of x?

first, we define the variables:

x: number of years after 1950

f (x): amount of vinyl sold.

then, with the variables defined, we have:

68594 vinyl records were sold in 1958 > f (8) = 68594

91299 vinyl records were sold in 1961 > f (11) = 91299

38720 vinyl records were sold in 1952 > f (2) = 38720

161743 vinyl records were sold in 1967 > f (17) = 161743

step-by-step explanation:

1st integer x

2nd integer x+1

3rd integer x+2

4th integer x+3

x+x+1 +x+2+x+3 =74

combine like terms

4x+6 = 74

subtract 6 from each side

4x = 68

x = 17

the integers are 17,18,19,20
