Answer:

4x - 5 = 131 where x is the first number.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x.

Seconder number = 2x + 7.

Third number = x - 12.

So, the equation is :-

x + 2x + 7 + x - 12 = 131

4x - 5 = 131

4x = 136

x = 34

First number = 34, second = 2(34) + 7 = 75 and third number = 34-12 = 22.
