Step-by-step explanation:

Three friends were born in consecutive years

Let the birth years of first person be  x,

Let the birth years of second person be (x+1)

Let the birth years of third person be(x+2)

The sum of their birth years is 5982.

Solving the given equation for x:

The birth years of first person = x =  1993

The birth years of second person = (x+1) = 1993+ 1 = 1994

The birth years of third person = (x+2) = 1993+2 = 1995

y=1/4x-4
