IM TRYING TO ANSWER BUT IT WONT LET ME OMH ITS C
Multiply both sides by 19 to get w=171
Let x = Wally's age now
Then, 3x = Jose's age now
Wally's age 5 years from now = x+5
Jose's age 5 years from now = 3x+5
(x+5) + (3x+5) = 42
4x + 10 = 42
4x = 32 x = 8
Wally is 8 years old and Jose is 24.
The graph is misleading because it appears to be showing a huge increase, however, it is showing this increase over a huge time span of 13 years, which is actually quite a small amount for only a few hundred customer increase.
