Answer:
John is 17,
Susan is 14,
and Khalid is 9.
Step-by-step explanation:
a = John's age
b = Susan's age
c = Khalid's age
Let's set our rules from the given information.
a = b + 3
c = b - 5
a + b + c = 40
Now, we can solve for b through substitution.
(b + 3) + b + (b - 5) = 40
3b - 2 = 40
3b = 42
b = 14
So, now that we have Susan's age, we can follow the rules and see if it holds.
17 + 14 + 9 = 40 Viola!
