6. Three consecutive even integers are such that the square of the third is 76 more than
thesquare of the second. Find the three integers.

𝑎𝑎, 𝑎𝑎 + 2, 𝑎𝑎 + 4
(𝑎𝑎 + 4)2 − (𝑎𝑎 + 2)2 = 76

𝑎𝑎2 + 8𝑎𝑎 + 16 − 𝑎𝑎2 − 4𝑎𝑎 − 4 = 76


4𝑎𝑎 + 12 = 76

4𝑎𝑎 = 76 − 12
𝑎𝑎 = 16
So, the consecutive even integers are 16,18,20.
