x + y = 3.36 --> the boys are splitting $3.36
x = 3y - .12 --> one boy received $.12 less than 3 times as much as the other
--> substitute the second equation for the x in the first equation
(3y - .12) + y = 3.36 --> combine like terms
4y - .12 = 3.36 --> add .12 to both sides of the equation
4y = 3.48 --> divide both sides by 4
y = .87
the other boy gets $0.87
substitute into x = 3y - 12
x = 3(.87) - .12
x = 2.61 - .12
x = 2.49
the first boy gets $2.49

First choose the president. From the 4 people, everyone can be the president except Dan, so there are 3 choices.
Then, choose the treasurer. Neither Bob nor Dan can be the treasurer so there are only 2 choices.
Now choose the secretary. Cyd is the only person who can't take this position, so there are 3 choices.
We are asked by the number of ways of choosing the 3 officers. Using the product rule, this is equal to 3×2×3=18.
