Let H = Hailey's age and M = Maverick
Hailey is 3 times as old as Maverick: H = 3M
The sum of their ages is 48 years: H + M = 48
Since H = 3M, substitute 3M in place of H in the second equation:
H + M = 48
3M + M = 48
4M = 48
M = 12
Maverick is 12 years old. Hailey = 3M = 3(12) = 36 years old.
6% tax means 6% of $3.50
Convert 6% to decimal (move decimal 2 spots to the left): 6% ⇒ .06
Multiply 3.50 with .06 = .21 <-- That's .21 cents of 3.50
That means you have to pay an extra 21 cents. Add that to the $3.50 you had to pay.
$3.50 + $0.21 = $3.71 <-- Price after tax

There isn't an exact way to answer this problem. Is there more to the question? If not, I am unable to answer it for you.
2x + 6y = 12
2x - 2x + 6y = 12 - 2x
6y = 12 - 2x
6y/6 = 12/6 - 2x/6
Y = 2 - 2/6 X
Y = 2 - 1/3 X or
Y = -1/3 X + 2.
