Let x represent the first number, y represent the second, and z represent the third.
x + y + z = 92
z = 3x
x = y - 7
Solve x = y - 7 for y.
x = y - 7
x + 7 = y
Fill in y and z so that we only have to worry about x for now.
x + y + z = 92
x + (x + 7) + (3x) = 92
x + x + 7 + 3x = 92
5x + 7 = 92
5x = 92 - 7
5x = 85
x = 85/5
x = 17
Solve for y.
y = x + 7
y = (17) + 7
y = 24
Solve for z.
z = 3x
z = 3(17)
z = 51
So x = 17, y = 24, and z = 51.
The correct answer is Y=2

The coefficient a in a linear function (or even a modular function) implies the slope of the function line. The higher the value of a, the greater the slope of the line. the lower the value of a, the lower the slope of the line
