X is Kevin; Y is Dan
X = 3Y
X - 4 = 5(Y - 4)
3Y - 4 = 5(Y - 4)
3Y - 4 = 5Y - 20
+ 4 +4
4 cancels each other out.
3Y = 5Y - 16
- 5 -5
5 cancels each other out.
-2Y = -16
/2 /2
Y = 8
X = 3Y;
X = 3 x 8;
Thus,
X = 24;
Kevin(x) is 24
<u><em>Answer: x=6 *The answer should be the positive sign.*</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:

48/8=6
48/6=8
8*6=48
x=6
Hope this helps!
Thanks!
Have a great day!
