To solve for X, you first add the integers together and the X variables together. Then you subtract 3 from each side, followed by dividing by 3 on each side. Here is the work to show our math:

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 154

3X + 3 = 154

3X + 3 - 3 = 154 - 3

3X = 151

3X/3 = 151/3

X = 50 1/3

Since 50 1/3 is not an integer, there is no true answer to this problem.
